The Asian Community & Cultural Center supports and empowers all refugees and immigrants through programs and services and advances the sharing of Asian cultures and the other cultural heritages of our clients with the community at large.
In 1992, the organization began as the Asian Community & Cultural Center. Leaders in the community from multiple Asian backgrounds joined together, initially meeting in one another’s homes, to envision what the center could become. They wanted to create a community space for education, welfare, recreation, and fellowship, to connect and share cultural heritage and promote the well-being of their people.
