Our Programs
Community Programs
While we aim to serve the Khmer community, we welcome all who are curious and eager to learn about our community and culture.
Elders Programs
We serve elders ages 55 and older through the King County Veterans, Seniors, and Human Services Levy (VSHSL) and the Khmer Senior Village. Compassionately serving elders in a culturally relevant way is one of KCSKC’s priorities.
Youth Programs
Our youth programs change with the seasons and access to resources for youth regarding mental health, academic support, college & career exploration, and overall well-being.
Programming is always free & sometimes there are opportunities to get paid!

Support Khmers in action
Since the start of COVID-19, KCSKC has grown exponentially, expanding services to include elders through our Senior Village program which includes house visits, resource navigation assistance, culturally relevant groceries, and field trips.
It is our vision to build Phum Khmer, a Khmer community hub in White Center, where our Khmer community has suffered displacement numerous times. Phum Khmer will be a place for our community members to gather, learn, connect, heal, and grow together.
