The National Korean American Service & Education Consortium (NAKASEC) is 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 social justice movement. Our mission is to organize Korean and Asian Americans to achieve social, economic, and racial justice. NAKASEC maintains offices in Annandale, VA and Los Angeles, CA and has affiliates in Los Angeles (Korean Resource Center) and Chicago (Hana Center). 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. NAKASEC was founded in 1994 by local community centers in Los Angeles seeking to empower and improve the lives of Korean Americans as a part of a greater goal of building a national movement for social change. Our founding was the culmination of the base building work our affiliates had been doing for years in their respective cities. Our D.C. office opened in the fall of 2008.
