About Us
Chinese American Parent Association of Howard County (CAPA-HC), founded in Fall 2015, is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization and enlisted as a CFC charity (Combined Federal Campaign).
Launched in the fall of 2015, CAPA-HC has experienced rapid growth in the past few years, reaching over 2000 registered members in Howard County.
Although it was originally founded as an entity for Chinese American parents, CAPA-HC provides opportunities for all underrepresented citizens and immigrants through equitable access to resources, services, and programs. CAPA-HC provides three core services: Family & Youth Education, Community Outreach, and Civic Engagement.
CAPA-HC collaborates with the public school system, community organizations, private foundations, and the County Government to leverage its services and meet the needs of families with diverse backgrounds.
