The Korean American Coalition, Washington, DC area chapter (KAC-DC) held its first citizenship drive (CD) of the year on Sunday, February 20, 2002 from 1 pm to 3 pm at St. Andrew Kim Church in College Park, MD. Volunteers and board members from KAC-DC and the community service group at the church assisted 50 Korean Legal Permanent Residents (LPRs) in completing their N-400 application for naturalization.

Subsequent citizenship drives were held on September 20, 2002, at the Korean Presbyterian Church of Washington in Fairfax, Virginia, and on October 26, 2002, at the St. Paul Chung Catholic Church in Fairfax, Virginia. Both drives were well attended by volunteers and participants alike. In 2002, KAC-DC volunteers assisted over 150 people become U.S. citizens through its naturalization workshops.

On December 1, 2002, KAC-DC also held a change-of-address drive to help permanent residents and legal immigrants fill out their AR-11 forms. The event took place in the multipurpose room of the Korean Central Presbyterian Church in Vienna, Virginia.

Thank you to all of our volunteers! Over 50 volunteers helped make KAC-DC's citizenship drives and change-of-address drive a success. KAC-DC greatly appreciates the support it has received from community members.
