The resolution honors Chi-mei Lin, who is set to retire as the chief executive officer of the Chinese Community Center (CCC) in Houston in December 2024, after over two decades of dedicated service. Ms. Lin began her tenure at the CCC in 1999 as the associate executive director and became CEO in 2002. Under her leadership, the organization transformed from a language school into a comprehensive agency offering job training and senior services to a diverse community. She has been instrumental in fostering collaborations and enhancing the visibility of Asian Americans in the Greater Houston area, as well as achieving national accreditation for the CCC Child Development Center and overseeing significant facility expansions.

The resolution expresses the Texas House of Representatives' congratulations to Ms. Lin for her impactful contributions to the CCC and the community, acknowledging her vision, expertise, and commitment to the agency's mission. It also extends best wishes for her future endeavors and calls for an official copy of the resolution to be prepared for her as a token of high regard from the legislature.
