Community Outreach
We publish a Chinese-language newsletter three times a year and coordinate community education and presentations to other agencies in the area.
Job Readiness Training
We offer job readiness training in computer skills development, resume preparation, job application form completion, and interview skills. The 8-week series of 2-hour classes take place on Saturdays. We offer three sets of classes during the year. Call (415) 781-0401 Ext. 130 for more information.
Family Day
Family Day is an event through which we promote family harmony and wellness by providing information and resources that will help families build public and community awareness. We invite representatives from different organizations to be guest workshop speakers to talk about issues, such as health care, parenting, legal assistance, safety, mental health and communication with children and youth. Besides offering morning and afternoon workshops to adults, we also offer organized and supervised activities for families with children. Registering before the event is required.
June Outing
The June outing is an annual event offered to the active members of our Chinese Cancer Support Group and Cantonese Women’s Support Group. Many of our members are struggling and facing many challenges, such as fighting a life-threatening illness, working long hours to make ends meet, raising children in a society that they are unfamiliar with, dealing with trauma, and/or surviving the abuse of a domestic partner. This is an opportunity for families to get away from these worries for a day to enjoy, explore and learn new things outside of San Francisco, especially since the families do not have access to transportation or know how to access public transportation. It is a time for fun, relaxation, and fellowship. |
