Template:TOCnestleft NAKASEC is the National Korean American Service & Education Consortium, a grassroots organization founded in 1994 by local community centers to project a progressive voice and promote the full participation of Korean and Asian Americans within the larger society. Our mission is to organize Korean and Asian Americans to achieve social, economic, and racial justice. NAKASEC has affiliates in Los Angeles and Orange County (Korean Resource Center) and Chicago (Hana Center) and maintains offices in Los Angeles, Chicago and Annandale, Virginia.
NAKASEC began its work in Virginia five years ago. Current programs are centered around Immigrant Rights, Civic Engagement, and Parent and Youth Organizing. NAKASEC VA’s work is focused on the most vulnerable community members including low-income, recent immigrants, limited English proficient, undocumented, youth, women, and seniors.[1]
