History
KCSC was founded in 1983 as a community based
service agency in the Korean community in Washington State. Initially founded to
assist new American's of Korean descent to overcome language and cultural barriers.
KCSC has been a friendly neighbor to all who need help and assistance in the Korean
Community. KCSC has been providing Social Service and Language's service targeting
the Korean Population. As our largely immigrant community matures, KCSC has also
matured. After initially providing interpretation services, we received chemical
treatment certification. Our domestic violence prevention program has reached out
to many who had previously accepted spousal abuse. The parenting program has also
been effective in teaching parents how to assimilate and to teach their own children
who are learning and growing in a culture unfamiliar to the parents. The free legal
clinic has been able to help low income members of our community. The KCSC has benefited
from a staggering number of lawyer volunteer hours.
Today, KCSC services provided are:
Individual and Family Counseling, Pro Bono Legal Counseling, Parenting Classes,
Youth Leadership Programs, Immigrant Assistant Services, Translation Services, and
Information and Assistance Services.
