WHAT WE DO   We are Montagnard community members working under MDA/MAO  who set standards for scholars, journalists, researchers and others on behalf of MDA/MAO and the Montagnard community. We explain the manner in which academic-based service learning, professional scholarly work and research projects will be conducted. CAC offers orientation and training  for students involved in service learning, community or civic engagement, student  researchers, academics and professional researchers. Based on scope and purpose, there may be a fee charged. 

The CAC Vision Statement    CAC exists to ensure that our community evolves and sustains long-lasting transformation towards a better and stronger community. We assert our heritage and culture so we can exist with all in equality. We promote, protect and enhance the health and well-being of all Montagnards through community engagement and partnerships with professional organizations and higher education institutions.
