The objective of the ICA Alumnae Association is to continue and reinforce the formation that the school instituted.  And true to the ideals of ICA, the seeds that were planted have borne much fruit:  many ICA students and alumnae have made significant—although some quiet and uncelebrated—contributions to society in their profession, vocation, mission…and in faith.
