"The mission of the African Community Education Program (ACE) is to assist our students in realizing their educational, cultural, and social goals while guiding them in becoming competent, responsible and productive citizens in the Worcester, Massachusetts area as well as the greater society.

ACE aims to achieve this mission by providing academic and nonacademic programming during after-school and out-of-school time. Our approach is to provide comprehensive services that meet their educational and psychosocial needs while using culturally competent models and addressing common barriers to participation. Our experienced teachers and enthusiastic volunteers are dedicated to supporting our students' needs as they move towards high school graduation and post-secondary success. ACE works closely with the Worcester Public Schools to ensure that our programs complement and enhance the education our students receive in school.

Students are provided with opportunities to build strong relationships with their teachers, mentors, peers, and other members of the community. In addition to our educational programs, we offer extra-curricular activities, such as dance, sports and the arts, in order to stimulate student creativity while at the same time providing outlets for personal expression and opportunities to interact with peers in a fun, healthy, and enriching environment."
