AfriCaribe serves the greater Chicagoland area in a variety of ways. Based in Humboldt Park, AfriCaribe's academy is able to offer classes to neighborhood residents of various ages and ethnic and cultural backgrounds in an easily accessible location situated in the heart of Paseo Boricua. Instructors in the academy have also worked very closely with other Chicago-based entities to provide cultural education including Dance Africa and the Chicago Public Schools.

While AfriCaribe is an organization created to celebrate African traditions in Puerto Rican and other Caribbean cultures, the performance ensemble serves numerous other ethnic and cultural groups. It also travels to various parts of the city and surrounding communities to share the accumulated knowledge and experience of the members with interested parties including universities, colleges, churches, community centers, and other civic organizations.
