Hmong 18 Council, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization serving the Hmong people in the state of Minnesota. Its mission is to bring positive changes in the Hmong community through racial and social justice, advocate for equity, enhance traditional values and practices, and improve the lives of individuals and families.

This book is made possible by collaborative effort of the Hmong 18 Council, Inc. of Minnesota, Hmong Educational Resources Publisher, and Minnesota Humanities Center on the “Honor the Past, Preserve the Future: Hmong 18 Clans Custom and Cultural Preservation Project.” This book project is funded in part by the MHC with money from the Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund that was created with the vote of the people of Minnesota on November 4, 2008.

Thank you to all current and former Councilmembers, Nres Xeem & Niam Nres Xeem, Clan Presidents & Pathans, Advisors & Legal Counsels, and Community Members who have contributed to this book. This project would not have been possible without the support from all of you.
