Welcome
The Sacramento Chinese Community Service Center (the Center) was founded in
1978 to aid newly arrived Chinese immigrants in dealing with the myriad challenges
of immigration and cultural adaptation. Today, we strive to honor and perpetuate
each person's culture of origin. In the last few years we've expanded our programs
to help non-Chinese immigrants, refugees and other disadvantaged groups including
the Hmong, Mien, Vietnamese, Ukrainian and Russian populations in Sacramento.
The Center serves more than 4,000 clients each year, including a significant number
of at-risk youth and the elderly.
Upcoming Event
Youth Leadership Summit - July 22nd - July 24th, 2009. In collaboration with BREATHE California of Sacramento-Emigrant Trails, the Center's Tobacco Education Department is offering a FREE, three-day, fun-filled leadership camp for youth held at Valley of the Moon in Sonoma County.

In collaboration with California Voices, we celebrated our first "Youth Film Festival" at the Crest Theater. The event included a public service announcement contest organized by the Center's ACT-UP program. The
celebration was held on Thursday, May 14th, 2009 from 6:00 p.m. to 8:30 p.m.
at the Crest Theatre.
The winning PSA was created by Sam Fitzgerald, a Senior at Natomas Charter School. To see the other top submissions, visit the ACT-UP tobacco control blog.
