About Chinese American Association of Cincinnati
Since 1971, the Chinese American Association of Cincinnati has been a vital gathering place for Chinese Americans and friends seeking to celebrate heritage, build community, and create meaningful connections in Cincinnati, OH. Founded with a mission to serve the local Chinese community, CAAC has grown into a trusted organization that understands the unique needs and aspirations of its members. In 2011, the organization expanded its impact by establishing the American Chinese Association in Ohio (ACAO), extending its reach across the state to better support the broader Chinese community. At its heart, CAAC is driven by a deep commitment to preserving and sharing Chinese cultural traditions while creating spaces where members can connect authentically. The organization believes that cultural pride and community belonging go hand in hand, which is why it consistently organizes social and cultural events that celebrate who we are. Beyond celebration, CAAC recognizes its responsibility to bridge communities and promote understanding between cultures. By facilitating meaningful exchanges between Eastern and Western perspectives, the organization works toward building a more diverse and multicultural Cincinnati where everyone benefits from greater cultural awareness and appreciation. CAAC's approach is rooted in the belief that strong communities are built on shared experiences, mutual respect, and genuine connection. For over four decades, the Chinese American Association of Cincinnati has proven itself a reliable partner in helping members feel seen, celebrated, and connected to a vibrant community that values their heritage and contributions.
