The Organization of Iranian American Communities (OIAC) is a bi-partisan nonprofit organization that represents a vast majority of Iranian Americans in the United States. The organization is known for advocating democratic, secular, non-nuclear republic Iran and upholding the rich heritage of the Iranian culture.
History
The OIAC was founded in 2012 with its present headquarters located in Washington, D.C., United States but it has been working as Iranian American Communities-US since 1997. Dr. Majid Sadeghpour is currently the Political Director of the organization while Ross Amin is the Vice President.
So far, the OIAC represents the network of Iranian-American organizations in 40 U.S. States. Members of OIAC are all volunteers and believe neither a foreign war nor an appeasement policy serves the interest of the Iranian people, people of the region and security of the world.

The organization advocates for a democratic secular government in Iran, founded on respect for human rights, religious tolerance, and equality among all Iranian citizens.
