On April 20, KASEC was invited to meet with Kyung Jae Park, the Consul General of Korea in Los Angeles. Some of KASEC’s staff and board members joined this honorable meeting to share the challenges Korean Americans with disabilities have and the positive outlooks and opportunity we can create collaboratively.
