We match the street line and ZIP code as the IRS gives them, ignoring case and outer spaces and nothing else, so "AVE" and "AVENUE" count as different streets and this list can miss some. A shared address can mean related organizations or a shared office, but it can also be a registered agent, a mail drop or a service provider holding mail for unrelated clients. It is not, by itself, evidence that two organizations are connected.

Mission and programs · 2023

• NCHM employs a holistic and integrated approach to its programming. There are four programming areas. 1) Increase the awareness of the Cambodian Genocide: Our long-term goal is to bring justice to the Cambodian Genocide survivors through mobilizing the broader society by increasing people's awareness of the Cambodian Genocide and its long-lasting impacts on the Cambodian community. NCHM provides guided tours of our permanent exhibition, Remembering the Killing Fields, and the Memorial; dialogues with visitors; and genocide workshops. 2) Facilitate healing through storytelling and shared memories.: The Remembering the Killing Fields exhibition tells lives under the Khmer Rouge based on more than 40 life histories told by local survivors. The exhibition provides a forum for dialogues among Cambodians from different generations, and between Cambodians and non-Cambodians. Since 2017, we have worked with Ada Cheng, a storyteller/producer, to incorporate storytelling into NCHM's programming. We aim to create a safe environment for participants of all ages, in which many of them share their stories for the first time in their lives. One Cambodian woman who lived through the genocide said, "it feels like something heavy in my head has been lifted. It feels like haling." 3) Culture and Healing Arts: We believe in the power of the arts in healing. NCHM, in collaboration with musicians, dancers, artists, and professionals, employs a holistic approach to address complex challenges that survivors and their families face. NCHM provides various activities that community members can use to explore the process of healing. We offer dance, music, and language classes; collaborations with artists to conduct workshops and exhibitions; and peer support groups, which incorporate music into their activities. In 2020, we launched "Music Connection," a virtual program that brings music and conversation to Cambodian seniors who have been staying at home and feeling isolated. 4) Foster youth leadership in social justice and peace building: NCHM provides a unique environment that facilitates critical thinking and learning, discussion and dialogue, and creative processes in which youth and young adults explore their heritage and identity, and their roles in the community as well as in a broader society to bring justice to the community and to advocate peace building.

Officers and directors · 2023

As listed in Part VII of the 2023 return, in the order the filer printed them. Each return names its own; this is not a roster the organization keeps with us.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all.

Grants made

No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.
