Get Involved

NOTE: SINCE THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC STARTED, MICOP HAS ADJUSTED TO HOST OUR MONTHLY MEETINGS AS FOOD DISTRIBUTIONS AT A NEW SITE AND LOCATION

Monthly Community Meeting

MICOP’s monthly community meetings are a great place to get involved and meet the MICOP staff and community members. Each meeting has a theme where we share information that is relevant to the indigenous community. We discuss immigration, driver’s licenses, health and education, among other topics. We also incorporate cultural events into the yearly meetings, including Día de los Niños, Día de las Madres, Día de los Muertos and End of the Year celebration. Food and diapers are distributed to the community at the meetings.

Volunteer opportunities include packing food bags and helping children with craft activities. We welcome your participation. To receive our latest email blasts with news and annuouncements please click here, to join our list.
