Register safely (2 minutes) Read our privacy commitment →501(c)(3) filed. Eight founders — every name, role, and vote public. Mixed diaspora: Albania-born and US-born, immigrants and second generation. The bylaws lock out single-person control on purpose.
Count me in See the proof →No state has to print an Albanian ballot — Albanian isn't on the Voting Rights Act's list, and hasn't been since 1975. No Albanian box on the Census, just a write-in most people skip. Few Albanian-American programs funded the way larger, counted communities are.

NAR's community-led count runs alongside the Census; your name helps show the real number.
