About Us: Established in 1895, the Chinese American Citizens Alliance (C.A.C.A.) has fought against racial discrimination, defended civil rights, opposed anti-immigration movements and countered efforts to marginalize American Chinese culture and heritage. Each of the 18 chartered chapter/lodges across the U.S. is dedicated to enhancing civic pride, supporting community services and promoting responsible citizenship. C.A.C.A. Los Angeles was organized on May 15, 1912.
