Dear KRC members,
In the last 26 years, we have been engaged in Korean American social movements to make changes for social justice. Also, under KRC’s roof, we have prepared various meetings and activities for children, teenagers, college students, parents, and elders.
On April 4, we are inviting all KRC participants, sponsors and Korean Americans to KRC’s “Unity Meeting.” Through this gathering, we are seeking to share opinions on how to find ways for community participation on important issues such as healthcare and immigration reform.
