The Chinese Association of Science, Economics and Culture of South Florida (CASEC),
registered in the state of Florida as a non-profit organization, was established
in 1994 by local Chinese American professionals. Today CASEC has grown and become
the largest Chinese American organization in South Florida with its membership of
1200 from Jupiter to Homestead. CASEC members are from many fields and of a variety
of backgrounds, from professionals in academic teaching and research, industrial
R&D and management, finance, law practice, to successful business entrepreneur.
Members also include Chinese students and local Americans in the greater South Florida
area. All members (including e-members) should abide by CASEC by-laws. In 1995,
CASEC established a weekend Contemporary Chinese School of South Florida (CCSSF)
that currently has three campuses at Boynton Beach, Plantation, and Miami with more
than 600 enrolled students. Since 2001, various clubs have been also established
to enrich members’ daily life.
