About

Chinese Mutual Aid Association is a long-standing social impact organization that has grown to represent clients and participants from over 40 countries. Immigrants and refugees from Vietnam, Myanmar, Venezuela, Ethiopia, and Bosnia & Herzegovina have received services from diverse CMAA staff who speak over twenty languages. We exemplify these values through our multiethnic, Asian American Board including a first-generation immigrant from the Philippines as Executive Director. 

CMAA offers services for the community spanning several generations. After-school programs provide children from kindergarten to 8th grade with culturally competent enrichment. Young Women Warriors and Young Men Making Moves are teen mentorship programs that provide guidance for high school students as they transition to adulthood. Adult education programming centers around English as a Second Language in addition to financial and computer literacy and employment readiness. Additionally, pre-bridge workforce programs are offered to prepare clients for careers in office technology and healthcare. For older adults, CMAA offers a range of services primarily in-home services so seniors can age in place. The Golden Age Club provides an enriching and active social life for seniors to interact with one another and engage with the community. Aspiring entrepreneurs can receive no-cost small business advice and support with professional workshops and resources.
