Our Chapters
Nationally Connected. Locally Engaged.
BCA-USA’s strength begins in our local communities.
Across the United States, our chapters serve as the local arms of BCA-USA, bringing members and families together while connecting them to the larger national Association.
Chapters create spaces for members to build relationships, celebrate our culture, support one another, welcome new members, engage in community initiatives, and participate in the programs and projects of BCA-USA. Each chapter elects its own leadership while remaining connected to the national organization through representation in the National Executive Committee.
Whether gathering for a monthly meeting, celebrating an important milestone, supporting a family, organizing a cultural activity, volunteering within the community, or preparing to host the Annual Convention, our chapters keep the spirit of BCA-USA active at the local level throughout the year.

Chapter Life
Community Happens Here.
Our chapters are where many of the everyday experiences of BCA-USA take place.
Throughout the year, chapters bring members together through reunions and meetings, cultural celebrations, family activities, community service, fundraising, social gatherings, youth engagement, and support for national BCA-USA initiatives.
Each chapter has its own personality, traditions, and activities—while sharing the common culture, mission, and purpose that unite BCA-USA nationally.
