Liberty Equality and Opportunity Serving the Community Since 1977 Liberty Equality and Opportunity Serving the Community Since 1977 Home National PresidentMaria Yang Dear Members of OCAWI have been an active member of OCAW for more than 10 years and previously served as the President of the Virginia Chapter from 2014 to 2017. In 2017 OCAW celebrated its 40th Anniversary and I was pleased to contribute my time and efforts to make this event very successful and memorable. Five years later in 2022 the National President Christina Chang asked me to serve again as the President of the Virginia Chapter and to help with the 45th Anniversary celebration which I was happy to do. In late 2022 Christina announced her retirement after 12 years of leading OCAW and asked if I would consider taking the reins as National President.
