The Broward Tax Pro, also known as the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program, is a county-wide initiative that helps individuals and families save on tax preparation fees and keep more of their hard-earned money. The program has been running since 2003 and has brought back over $540 million in tax refunds to the Broward County community. The VITA program is a national IRS initiative established in 1969 and is operated by community partners. It provides free tax preparation assistance with an accuracy rate of 94 percent and ensures taxpayers claim all applicable credits for which they qualify.
About the African American Research Library and Cultural Center
The Broward County African American Research Library and Cultural Center (AARLCC) is located in the Sistrunk community, one of the oldest historically Black communities named for one of Fort Lauderdale’s first Black physicians. Opening to the public on October 26, 2002, AARLCC became the third public library of its kind in the United States dedicated to the study of Black history and culture. The 60,000-square-foot Center serves as a repository of materials related to the local, national, and international voices of the African diaspora, with more than 85,000 books, manuscripts, artifacts, framed art, print, photography, audiovisual, and documents held in our Adult Services Section and Special Collections. The Youth Services Section features a special collection of Coretta Scott King Award books and the Ashley Bryan Art Collection from illustrators of African Descent. AARLCC also features a 5,000 sq. ft. museum, a 300-seat state-of-the-art theatre, and a Computer Training Center.
