2008.06 OCA Member Input for Profile on Chinese American Community

Dear OCA Chapter Members,

OCA is collaborating with the University of Maryland Asian Pacific American Census Information Center on a Profile of Chinese Americans, the first comprehensive report on Chinese Americans (part of an eventual series on the Asian Pacific American community) that looks at the ethnic group on a national level.

The report will weave social narrative on unexplored topics with the latest census data designed in a quick reference format with colorful statistical tables, maps, and charts for the public.

We need your input to make this report truly comprehensive!
For this June's OCA Action Day, please help us document the Chinese American community by filling out the following questions to the best of your ability. Please complete by June 23, 2008!

Thank you,
OCA National Center and the University of Maryland APA Census Information Center
