The Nigerian Islamic Association (N.I.A.) is a 501 ( c) corporation borne by the vision of an array of young Nigerian Immigrants who in the late 1980s came together as a group to create a religious and cultural identity for fellow Nigerians and the larger African community in Chicago. It all began with small congregational prayer meetings every Sunday at members’ houses in turns and later moved to a rented space on W. Foster Avenue, Chicago. In 1994, the Organization acquired its first and current location on 932 W Sheridan Road, Chicago, 60613, and has continued to grow in membership and programs. As of today, the Nigerian Islamic Association is one of the largest Nigerian Muslim communities in the United States of America.
