International Children Assistance Network
Founded in 2000 by three Vietnamese refugees, ICAN’s mission, since the beginning, has always been to raise the next generation of caring, strong, Vietnamese-American leaders by engaging, informing, and inspiring our community through our culturally responsive social and humanitarian programs.
WHAT WE DO
ICAN in the News!
We’re honored to be recognized for our role in the Vietnamese Insights Into Aging Program (VIP): a first-of-its-kind, long-term study exploring how war trauma impacts brain health in aging Vietnamese refugees and immigrants.
In partnership with UCSF, UC Davis, and a dedicated team of researchers, ICAN’s Family Resource Center helped connect San Jose’s Vietnamese seniors with this important study.

VIETNAMESE AMERICAN VOICES
ICAN is proud to present stories from South Vietnam by Vietnamese Americans in our initiative titled “South Vietnam: Memories and Perspectives,” aimed at bringing the Vietnamese American community together, capturing the history, creating a legacy that would honor the older Vietnamese American generations, and anchor the younger generations, and helping our children and grandchildren remember how their ancestors came to America.
