Fort McCoy Garrison Commander Col. Stephen Messenger gives final comments May 21, 2024, during the 2024 Asian-Pacific Islander Month Observance at McCoy’s Community Center at Fort McCoy, Wis. During this event, Tony Yang and other members of the Hmoob Cultural and Community Agency of La Crosse, Wis., gave a special presentation to talk about Hmong culture, and much more. According to the agency's description, it was originally founded in 1982 as the La Crosse Area Hmong Mutual Assistance Association, Inc. (HMAA). The HMAA's primary role at that time was to assist Southeast Asian refugees, most of whom were Hmong, adjust to life in the La Crosse area. The HMAA grew and expanded services into areas of translation and interpretation, job placement and development, elderly services, youth services, domestic violence prevention, health screening and referral, advocacy, and others.
