News from the Immigration and Refugee Services of America,
December 1, 2000

==================================
Here is a great resource book for those agencies working with
Cambodian, Hmong, and Vietnamese groups.

SOUTHEAST ASIAN AMERICAN MUTUAL ASSISTANCE ASSOCIATION
DIRECTORY 2000

The Southeast Asian American Mutual Assistance Association
Directory 2000 is the first comprehensive listing and description
of Southeast AsianAmerican mutual assistance associations (MAAs).
The Directory lists contact information and provides data on the
programs and history of 136 MAAs -- community-based organizations
that are primarily managed by and for Southeast Asian Americans
throughout the nation.

The Directory also provides useful data on Southeast Asian American
communities; describes national-level organizations focusing on
Cambodian, Hmong, and Vietnamese Americans; and presents summary
information in a convenient index.  The goals of the Directory are
to help MAAs communicate with one another more effectively, to link
more mainstream organizations with MAAs, and to  provide insight into
the largely invisible -- but vitally important -- nonprofit
organizations that serve and represent Americans of Cambodian, Laotian,
and Vietnamese descent.

This publication is made possible by a generous grant from the Ford
Foundation.
