The Turkic American Alliance is a non-governmental, non-profit organization established under the 501(c) 3 laws within the United States with the sole purpose of promoting cultural understanding. It is the largest national Turkic organization in the United States, representing 6 regional Turkic American federations and councils and over 240 community associations, cultural and dialogue centers, business chambers and education institutions. TAA also functions as a powerful advocate for dialogue not only among the Turkic American and American communities, but also among the Turkic states and The United States. Stemming from the need for a broad, nationwide alliance on Capitol Hill to better coordinate the joint efforts of 6 regional federations and councils that preside over 240 local organizations located across the U.S., a new enterprise was established in Washington, D.C., on May 12, 2010, with the Grand Gala Opening Reception at the Willard InterContinental Hotel near the White House. Over 50 U.S. Representatives, 7 U.S. Senators and several Ambassadors attended the Grand Gala Opening alongside prominent members of the Turkic American community. The Turkic American Alliance's new headquarters is located in Washington, D.C., with a beautiful view onto Capitol Hill. From that point on, the Turkic American Alliance has worked to enhance the work of its regional federations and councils. Our signature event is the annual Turkic American Convention that takes place every spring in Washington, D.C. Check our Convention website at www.turkicamericanconvention.org.
