Cammi Chih

Executive Director, Community Services Center

“I’ve always believed that transformation is not just about strategy—it’s about people. I came to the Center because I saw an opportunity to build something truly meaningful: a space where people from all walks of life—especially those navigating international transitions—can feel at home, find support, and grow stronger together.”

“This work is personal to me. Having moved abroad at 14, I understand what it means to adapt, to feel alone, and to search for connection in a foreign place. Today, I’m proud to be part of a team that helps others find belonging, strength, and community.
