Established in August 1995, Center Focus Publishing Association is a private nonpolitical organization, which promotes the understanding and continuity of contemporary cultural roots, attempting to reflect and preserve the traditions and values of the Americans of Romanian origin.

In cooperation with knowledgeable and experienced writers, editors, graphicians, publishers as well as printers from within various ethnic groups of United States, Center Focus Publishing Association has been able to produce for various organizations promotional materials such as: inserts, newsletters, booklets, brochures, magazines, books, church and trade directories.

The following is a brief presentation of the more recognized publications for the Romanian-Americans, the later project being of greater international awareness not only among Romanians but also among foreign relations dignitaries of many nations.

	In 1995, Center Focus Publishing completed its first ethnic publication commemorating the end of the first school year of Chicago's Romanian-American "Norwood Park Christian School". In the American tradition of yearbooks, this publication outlines the founding and activity of the so called "Romanian Christian School" of Chicago. With pictures and articles, on a total of 144 pages, out of which 44 are color, this book recorded many of the special moments.
	In 1996, at the end of the second school year, we published another yearbook for the "Romanian Christian School" of Chicago. This second edition, containing quality graphics and dozens of pictures compiled on 120 pages printed black and white, was just as effective and informative as the first publication in the Romanian School's outreach efforts within the Romanian-American community of metropolitan Chicago area.
	In 1997, the third school-year's book of memories was published for the "Romanian Christian School" of Chicago. An improvement in the quality of paper as well as in the printing process turned this publication into a true black and white photo-album coupled with articles meant to recognize accomplishments of top students, while reaching out to other parents in an attempt to win their participation.
	In 1998, once again, Center Focus Publishing outreaches to the Romanian-American community of Chicago while promoting the "Romanian Christian School" through another yearbook. The activity of the Romanian school became known even to the Romanian President Emil Constantinescu. Distribution of this book also reached dignitaries in the Romanian Parliament and its "Committee for Relations with Romanians Abroad". On a local note, former Illinois Governor Mr. Jim Edgar as well as newly elected Governor Mr. George Ryan, congratulated Norwood Park Christian School and Center Focus Publishing for their efforts within the Romanian-American community of Illinois in preserving the Romanian heritage.
	In 1999, an unprecedented accomplishment marks a major milestone in the outreach efforts within the Romanian-American community through the publishing of the first ever: "Romanian-American YELLOW PAGES™" with a debut of 288 pages. Information was gathered from various official sources, such as: the U. S. Department of State, the U. S. Embassy in Bucharest, the Embassy of Romania in Washington D.C., the U. S. Small Business Administration, the renown Romanian National Pages Publishing House of Bucharest, Royal Publishing Co. of Bucharest, and many others.
	In 2000, a revised and updated edition of the "Romanian-American YELLOW PAGES™" was published. With a much improved look and over 450 pages, two color sections, and a green section for special offers and coupons, this book truly is Center Focus Publishing's best achievement. Another noteworthy feature of this enciclopedic almanac is the fact that it contains information pertaining to the independent Republic of Moldova which prior to the second world war was part of Romania. The color pictures of lanscapes and scenes from Romania and Republic of Moldova are of best quality and speak of the Romanian culture and history.
