Mr. Speaker. I rise to pay tribute to the ChineseAmerican Planning Council (CPC). which today celebrates 50 years of service to the ChineseAmerican. immigrant and lowincome communities in New York City. CPC was founded at the grassroots level and its roots are deep in New Yorks Chinese American community. In the mid1960s. as immigration from Asia began steadily growing. CPC was launched and began counseling E1662 families referred by local schools. As the agency developed. it began providing case management services to help recent arrivals adjust to their new homes. The organization grew rapidly and started providing important educational services to schoolage children. including early child care.
