About Chinese American Service League

For over 45 years, Chinese American Service League has been a trusted partner in Chicago, IL, building stronger, more resilient communities through culturally inclusive programming and genuine relationship-based support. Founded on principles of equity and justice, CASL catalyzes transformation for individuals, families, and entire neighborhoods by combining deep cultural understanding with comprehensive wraparound services. The organization's legacy reflects a commitment to honoring the wisdom of generations while creating pathways to stability, independence, and opportunity for all.

Serving Chicago's diverse population across 134 zip codes, CASL connects people not just with individual programs, but with interconnected support systems that address root causes of instability. Their work spans education and cultural enrichment for children, dignified independent living for seniors, workforce development for tomorrow's leaders, citizenship pathways for immigrants, housing and financial security, healthcare access, and equal justice. What sets CASL apart is their data-driven, community-led approach to social change, demonstrated through initiatives like their Change InSight program that leverages community input to drive actionable solutions. As Chicago continues to evolve, CASL remains rooted in accessibility, diversity, and inclusion at every organizational level. Whether through direct services, community partnerships, or volunteer opportunities, CASL invites Chicagoans to join their mission of building a more equitable future where all individuals, families, and communities can thrive together.
