Our CONTACT Directory can help you!
Since its first edition in 1981, the CONTACT Directory has become an indispensable guide and resource covering Washington State’s ethnic organizations. EHC is currently working on a new edition of this valuable tool. Built on a foundation of extensive research and data compilation, CONTACT lists hundreds of ethnic organizations.
Browse the CONTACT LINKS of some or our EHC Member Organizations below to find who you are looking for!
We'll update the CONTACT Directory page as we receive more CONTACT LINKS from EHC Member Organizations and keep you updated on changes to come!
