In the last decade the DFW area has undergone a major demographic change, with an influx of Asian Americans into the North Texas area. Currently there are over 250,000 Asian Americans residing in the DFW metroplex. With growth, a need for one collective voice and a mechanism to show the cultural diversity we bring to the local communities.

NTAACA seeks to bring out the maximum potential of all people in our communities, and seeks to build a better world for all races.
