The Indian American Community Outreach Advisory Board's mission is to serve as a bridge between the Indian American community and all other communities in Aurora.

Build higher levels of civic engagement between local government entities and the Indian American community.

Provide opportunities in local and international economic development efforts for Aurora's current Indian American residents and businesses.

Embrace the Indian American community into Aurora's cultural outreach efforts including welcoming exchange students, visiting dignitaries, cultural events, and others.

Krishna Bansal, a business owner and active community leader in Aurora told the Tribune: "The new advisory board will ensure Indian Americans and other ethnic communities feel at home in Aurora and become part of the city fabric."

The city will seek an initial group of nine members who will be tasked with establishing the board before filling all 18 seats, it said.
