The Thai Community Development Center (Thai CDC) was founded in April 1994 on the idea that all peoples have a basic right to a decent standard of living and quality of life. Yet, in the Thai and in other disadvantaged communities, people are living in substandard housing and lack access to basic health services, education and quality employment. Although the history of Thai immigration in the United States only spans thirty years compared to the immigration history of other Asian Pacific ethnic groups, it is considered a rapidly growing community with unmet needs. Fairly dispersed throughout Los Angeles County, there are high concentrations of Thais in Hollywood and parts of the San Fernando Valley. With the proliferation of Thai-owned businesses and shops, these areas have become Thai ethnic enclaves for newly arrived Thai immigrants. Reports estimate that up to 50,000 Thai Americans make their home in Southern California, the majority of these are new immigrants who have arrived from Thailand within the last ten years.
