ICOA provides refuge in Ithaca, New York, for writers and artists whose works are suppressed, whose lives are threatened, whose cultures may be vanishing or whose languages may be endangered. We also advocate for human rights and freedom of expression. ICOA is an all-volunteer project of the Center for Transformative Action and a member of theInternational Cities of Refuge Network.
How can I help?
You can attend our events, provide free or discounted services for our guests, or volunteer to join our board. But the simplest way to help is to make a tax-deductible donation! It's fast and easy to give online, or you can write a check payable to the Center for Transformative Action and mail it to Center for Transformative Action, P.O. Box 760, Ithaca, NY 14851. Make sure to write "ICOA" on the memo line.
