Abek Community Development Program

The Abek Community Development Program was formed in November 2005 by the members of the Abek Community residing all over the United States; most of them are Lost Boys and Girls. When war broke out in the Sudan, the Sudanese communities were devastated by war emotionally, socially, educationally, and healthily. The Abek members in Diaspora understood their suffering and formed an association to alleviate the devastation that war brought to them.

The Abek Community Development Program (ACDP) is a nonprofit organization incorporated under articles of the Illinois Secretary of State. ACDP is a 501 (C) 3 organization under Nonprofit Federal law. The Abek Community Development is based at Christ Church, 470 N. Maple Street, Winnetka, IL 60093.

The Abek community in Southern Sudan is geographically located in Bor, Jonglei State with a population of 10,000 according to 1972 statistics.

This web site is dedicated to keeping the Sudanese Abek community united and informed. We will provide information to all members of the Abek Community Development Program, and share our journey with all who are interested.
