Asian Community Development Council

Asian Community Development Council, an Arizona-incorporated nonprofit organization headquartered in Las Vegas, Nevada, operates as a federal grant sub-recipient and grant recipient focused on citizenship education, immigrant integration services, and nutrition assistance outreach to low-income and senior populations in Nevada. The organization is structured as a tax-exempt corporate entity with Asian-Pacific American ownership designation; it holds no federal prime contracts but functions as a recipient on direct federal grants and as a sub-recipient on pass-through grants from the Department of Health and Human Services.

ACDC's federal footprint centers on two customer agencies. The Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service funds four sub-awards (all 80% of the organization's total federal activity) for SNAP application outreach and completion assistance targeting low-income and senior populations across Nevada, with sub-awards dating from December 2021, November 2023, November 2024, and November 2025. The Department of Homeland Security's U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services funded a single direct grant award of $300,000 issued November 22, 2024, under the Citizenship Education and Training program (CFDA 97.010), which runs through September 30, 2026 and supports citizenship instruction, English-language classes, naturalization application assistance, and broader immigrant integration services for lawful permanent residents in Nevada.

Total federal obligations across all five awards (one prime grant plus four sub-grants) amount to $868 thousand. Activity is infrequent and sparse — one award in 2021, one in 2023, two in 2024, and one in 2025 — with no discernible growth trajectory. ACDC operates exclusively within Nevada and focuses on direct service delivery to immigrant and low-income populations rather than federal contracting or systems integration. The organization has no presence on government-wide acquisition vehicles, agency IDIQs, or BPAs.
