CAWA 2025 Year-End Review
As we wrap up an impactful year, we thank our supporters, volunteers, partners, and sponsors for helping CAWA empower voices, celebrate heritage, and strengthen our communities through civic engagement, youth leadership, arts, and dialogue.
2025 Highlights include:
Naperville City Council Candidate Forum
The first hosted by Naperville’s Asian American community from CAWA and AIANA, offering community members a valuable opportunity to engage directly with candidates and participate in the democratic process.
3rd Annual CAWA Youth Art Exhibition
At Nichols Library, showcasing paintings, drawings, ceramics, and live performances by talented Asian youth, celebrating creativity, cultural expression, and emerging artistic voices.
2025 CAWA Community Conference
Bringing together community leaders, youth, and families for a full day of learning, dialogue and connection. The conference reflected CAWA’s ongoing commitment to inclusive leadership and civic participation.
Looking ahead, CAWA will continue uplifting Asian American voices with upcoming programs on family communication, mental health, storytelling, documentary film screenings, and our 4th Annual CAWA Youth Art Exhibition.
Stay tuned—we look forward to another year of learning, connection and community impact.
