Cambodian Community of Hawaii
The Cambodian Community of Hawaii (CCH) was a Cambodian community association in Honolulu that serves Khmer refugees across the state.[1][2] It offers social services, help with resettlement, and social and cultural support, with interpreting and translation in the Khmer language.[1] Its work also covers arts and culture and relocation assistance.[1] As of 2026 it is no longer operating.
Services
The association serves Cambodians statewide. Intake is by phone through its director, and its hours vary.[1] Its office has been at 2318 D Kalaunu Drive in Honolulu, with a main line at (808) 956-3791.[1] On April 17, 2010, it ran a Cambodian New Year celebration at Kahuku section E.[2]
Community
In 1988 the Cambodian community in Hawaii numbered 122 people, including seven non-Cambodian spouses and the children of mixed marriages. It was the smallest group of Southeast Asian refugees in the state.[3] The community was young, with a median age of 24. More than half of its households were fully self-supporting, compared with 36 percent nationwide.[3] Families came together at Cambodian picnics, lunches, dinners and other social events.[3]
