The CCACC Program
What We Do
In partnership with the adult daycare CCACC, this program connects us with Chinese and Taiwanese elders who share their remarkable life stories and insights.
Alongside discussing significant historical events such as WWII, the Cultural Revolution, Chinese economic reform, and the Great Leap Forward, we also delve into personal experiences—like their journeys migrating to the U.S. and adapting to new lives. By preserving these stories, we honor their resilience, celebrate their heritage, and foster a deeper connection between generations.
- 80+ seniors interviewed
- History from all across China and Taiwan
- Personal stories from all across the globe
