The mission of TACL is to improve the quality of life of Taiwanese Americans in the US. www.tacl.org

Taiwanese American Citizens Leagues (TACL) was officially established on July 13, 1985, with the mission to help improve the quality of life of Taiwanese Americans in the United States. The purpose of the Taiwanese American Citizens League is to enhance the quality of life for Taiwanese Americans in the US. Our work is largely devoted to building an understanding of Taiwanese American heritage, encouraging pride in Taiwanese American identity, developing a strong Taiwanese American community, advocating around issues pertinent to Taiwanese Americans, and helping to contribute to our culture, ever richer in its diversity. Its programs serve to benefit all ages, but have all emphasized on leadership and identity development programs for youth, encouraging involvement and development in areas that Asian Americans lack adequate representation. Signature programs include the Leadership Identity Development (LID) and Leading Youth Forward (LYF) Camps, Political Internship (SIP), Journalism Internship (JIP), Entertainment Internship (EI), High School Scholarship, and our affiliates for young professionals: Taiwanese American Professionals (TAP) and for high school students: Junior Taiwanese American Students Association (JTASA). TACL is a 501(c)3 non-profit run entirely by unpaid volunteers.

Thirty years ago, Taiwan held its first direct presidential election, marking a historic step toward democracy. Founded before that moment, TACL has grown alongside these values, empowering Taiwanese Americans through leadership, identity, networking, and citizenship. Today, we honor that legacy and the responsibility to carry it forward in TACL's mission.

Here are some photos from 1996 when Taiwan held its first election:
