Our impact began in the Uptown neighborhood and the northside of Chicago, then expanded to DuPage County via our satellite office in 2016. The purpose of VAI reflects our Community and Service mission:
To promote, support, and develop various cultural, social, and educational programs to serve Vietnamese Americans and other ethnic groups in Illinois.
To help generate the mutual assistance spirit among Vietnamese ethnic group members.
