Boat People SOS (BPSOS) is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization devoted to Vietnamese-American civic and political activism. It is headquartered in Falls Church, Virginia.〔(Idealist.com profile of BPSOS. )〕 BPSOS' mission is to "empower, organize, and equip Vietnamese individuals and communities in their pursuit of liberty and dignity." Since 1980, one in 10 Vietnamese Americans has received assistance from BPSOS while still in Vietnam, on the high seas, in a refugee camp, or after arriving in the United States. Through their 17 office locations in the U.S. and two office locations in Southeast Asia, they provide a web of services to support individuals, families, and communities.〔http://www.bpsos.org〕 BPSOS has experienced significant growth and positive media, especially with Pamela Constable's article in the ''Washington Post'' on 2008 October 21.〔("Asian Americans Feeling the Power" ) from p. B01 of the newsprint version (URL accessed 2009 January 14).〕 On 2008 December 6, BPSOS volunteer and former (1996-2002) board member Anh "Joseph" Cao became the first Vietnamese-American to be elected to Congress. ==History==
