Exciting News: TACT has been working with Laureen Chew (SFSU) as well as other community organizations on the Chinese/Cantonese bilingual certification program. There is now a potential opportunity for teachers who hold a multiple subjects credential to take JUST two additional classes in order to earn the bilingual certification. This would be a great opportunity to further build a pool of teachers who will hold the BCLAD credential. One of the classes would be offered in the fall and one in the spring. It would be tuition-free from available grants and the teachers would not need to enroll into the university. The classes would be offered through SFSU's College of Extended Learning. Please share this fantastic news with friends. If you are interested in obtaining more information as this program is developed, please fill out the Google Form so that we may keep in contact with you.

Herstory The Chinese American Historians Society was founded in 2014 and is devoted to spreading the inspirational legal stories of Chinese American women from 1852 to the present day. The cases were recorded in two traveling exhibitions titled "Herstory” and “Herstory 2." Herstory was showcased in more than 24 museums and major libraries since 2014, and Herstory 2 started its traveling exhibition in 2022. Herstory also published 16 "Oral History of Chinese American Women” books to record trailblazing women in their fields.
