cultural conflicts and discovers her place within the community, by
peeling back the layers of this niche trade seen by everyone but
known to few.

CAAMFest Filmmaker
Summit
May 19-21
This year, CAAM Fest's three-day Filmmaker Summit celebrates the
coming together of communities to join strengths against every force
that stops us from expressing our authentic selves and telling our
stories. We celebrate the tenacity that transforms collaboration into
alliances, alliances to movements, and the sheer grit that pushes
movements to inspire change.
This year’s Summit sessions and Happy Hours will be hosted on Remo, a
platform which allows for small group engagement similar to an
in-person gathering.

TONIGHTThe Cambodian Mutual Assistance Association presents . . . The 36th Anniversary Gala is celebrating "virtually" this year!
Friday, December 11th | 6PM - 7:15PM
Silent Auction December 4th - 14th
Even though there is no in-person gathering; no cocktail hour; no mingling; no dancing; & no hugging; we will celebrate together from the comfort of our homes and witness live performances from young people, auctioning of beautiful crafts and creative homemade baskets, and learn about our most recent COVID-19 efforts these past few months. What we have witnessed is the community coming together.
While CMAA worked with our funding partners to provide support to those in need, we also saw the "Humanity" in many community members who came out
to lend a helping hand. They donated face masks, hand sanitizers, air purifiers, and much more during this extraordinary time.
Join the Live event here.
Our celebration this year is focused on being an event that celebrates each other by everyone for everyone. Therefore we call it: CMAA's Community Celebration - Together With A Purpose! |

More From AARW:
On November 19th, the Trump administration proposed a new rule to ban work permits for people on Orders of Supervision (OSUP): those who have been ordered deported but are temporarily released from custody. This includes tens of thousands of Southeast Asian immigrants and refugees who have resettled to the US and rebuilt their lives after being displaced by the war in Southeast Asia.
Join us in protecting our friends, families; and community members by submitting a public comment opposing the proposed work ban on work permits by Monday, December 21st.
