We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit, non-partisan, community-based, and youth-oriented organization designed to provide a united voice for youth and professional leaders from across Southern California. UVSA was founded in 1982 as a means for the Vietnamese diaspora community to organize socially and politically.

 

Committed to leadership development, cultural awareness, civic engagement, and community service, UVSA is comprised entirely of unpaid volunteers including students, alumni, professionals, educators, and community leaders.
