Welcome to Mile-Hi JACL
Founded in 1929, the National JACL is the largest civil rights organization in the country focused on Americans of Japanese ancestory. Our mission is uphold and secure the civil rights of Japanese Americans and all Americans, while preserving the cultural heritage of our people. The Mile-Hi JACL as we are known, has been an active civil rights and educational organization since 1938. This represents a rich history of 65 years. The local JACL organization’s first president, Dr. Shimpei Sakaguchi, set the path and leadership that has endured and prospered.
The 2007 Board of Directors welcome you and hope you can join us and participate in the many community projects we support.
