joe says "mlmc rock"

As the descendant of immigrants who needed to learn English upon coming to America, Joe has a soft spot in his heart for all immigrants' pursuit of the American Dream. That's why he's spreading the word about The Multilingual and Multicultural Center's Rock Around the World event. MLMC is a local organization whose mission is to ensure equal access to educational opportunities for English Language Learners. Today, MLMC is a multi-faceted organization overseeing the language acquisition of the Portland Public School's English Language Learners in grades K-12. The Rock Around the World Party is an international dance party with tasty food and dancing, and will be held tonight at the Italian Heritage Center. Find more about this organization here, and more about the event here. Joe hopes it's a great event and offers his thanks to the MLMC for the great work they do!
