Welcome to the Korean American Youth Assistance Coalition (KAYAC)!

We are a dedicated organization committed to helping Korean American youth connect with their cultural heritage.

For over 25 years, KAYAC has proudly served the Korean American community, working to instill a strong sense of identity and cultural pride in our younger generations.

Our annual Motherland Excursion Program offers high school students the opportunity to explore Korea’s rich history, cutting-edge technology, and vibrant pop culture. Along the way, students form lasting bonds with peers, mentors, and community leaders in Korea.

Through these experiences, we hope our youth will embrace their roots and share the richness of Korean traditions with the world. Our mission is to nurture global leaders who use their Korean identity as a foundation for success—elevating the Korean American community and honoring our heritage.

We invite you to join us.

Thank you.
