CBCAC founded in 1998, we unites the resources of member organizations and individual members to empower Chinese American communities in Greater Chicago. We carries out our msssion through civic education, issue advocacy, communication with policy makers, communtiy mobiliztion and youth engagement. Here are a few that we have done in the past.  In 2021 we worked with Asian Americans Advancing Justice|Chicago along with other Asian American partner organizations, requesting all K-12 schools to include Asian American history in their curriculum, known as TEAACH Act. IL is the first state in the nation to have this requirement. In 2022, we helpled to make the 11th Ward the first Asian American Majority Ward in Chicago. We also facilitated almost 300 community members to complete application with our Emergency Rental Assistance Program and residents were able to see around $1,000,000 in rental and $40,000 utility aid go to the community. These are only some of the accomplishements we are proud of, to learn more about our orginization, please visit our website: www.cbcacchicago.org. Thank you.
