Springfield Vietnamese-American Civic Association, Inc

SVACA 's mission is to serve the Southeast Asian (Vietnamese, Laotian and Cambodian) immigrant- and refugee- communities of Western Massachusetts. Our goal is to empower immigrants to become self-sufficient and to help them adjust to American society through community support and education.

Objectives:

•  Serve as an advocate for the concerns and the interests of Southeast Asians 
• Conduct outreach and organize effective programs to access mainstream services such as health care, education and employment. 
•  Develop and implement sustainable, culturally and linguistically appropriate services for newcomers. 
•  Work in collaboration with other human service agencies to ensure appropriate and adequate services for all constituents. 
•  Encourage the Vietnamese population to use community resources to build leadership and organizational skills. 
•  Develop a greater understanding of Springfield's diverse population through community education.
