Chinese American Association of Central Florida

The Chinese American Association of Central Florida (CAACF) offers comprehensive Chinese language education and cultural programming throughout the Orlando, FL community. Founded in 1969, CAACF operates multiple specialized programs designed to serve diverse age groups and skill levels. The organization's Chinese School, established in 1980, provides language and cultural courses for students ranging from grade school through adult learners, currently serving hundreds of students in a welcoming educational environment. The school has maintained its reputation as one of Florida's most established and premier Chinese educational institutions, delivering instruction in a fun and supportive atmosphere that promotes both linguistic proficiency and cultural understanding. Beyond academics, CAACF enriches the Orlando community through The Dance Troupe, also founded in 1980, which showcases traditional Chinese dance at multicultural events throughout the region. For those interested in fitness and community building, the organization operates C.H.A.R.G.E., an Asian-American dragon boat team launched in 2010 that promotes this ancient Chinese sport while fostering team spirit and healthy living. All CAACF programs are grounded in the organization's core mission to promote Chinese language education and preserve Chinese cultural heritage in Central Florida. With over four decades of dedicated service, CAACF has become a vital cultural institution connecting the Chinese-American community while welcoming individuals of all backgrounds to participate in authentic cultural experiences and learning opportunities.
