Welcome to the Obama Presidential Center.
We're delighted you're here.
Before you arrive on campus, we want to give you a quick idea of what to expect — and our expectations of you.
The Obama Presidential Center is a vibrant 19.3 acre campus located in Chicago's historic Jackson Park. It's designed to inspire, empower, and connect people to change their world — and "people" includes you.
You might think it's our job to create the culture of the Obama Presidential Center.
You'd be right.
But that's not the whole story.
See, here's what we know: your experience of the Obama Presidential Center will be affected by everyone you interact with.
The culture of the OPC is co-created by every person there.
This is your invitation to help co-create the culture of the Obama Presidential Center.
At the Obama Presidential Center, we're guided by our Hope to Action™ Values.
This set of values is inspired by President and Mrs. Obama and embodied by individuals across ages, stages, and cultures.
Watch this 4-minute video to see how the values come to life at the OPC.
Here is the full set of Hope to Action Values. Some of them may be more specifically relevant to your time with us.
Thanks for doing what you do — and being who you are.
We're delighted that you're bringing your skills, experience and perspective to the Obama Presidential Center.
While you're here — regardless of your role — we invite you to consider the Hope to Action™ Values: those commitments, practices, and capacities we can exercise to create thriving, inclusive, democratic cultures in an increasingly diverse world.
