2014: New Quincy site opened

To meet the needs of a growing Asian and immigrant population, BCNC opened a satellite office in Quincy in 2014. Over the past few decades, Quincy has undergone a significant demographic shift, becoming one of the largest Asian diaspora hubs in Massachusetts. In 1990, more than 90% of the city’s population was White, with only 6.4% identifying as Asian. By 2000, that number had climbed to 15%, and as of 2024, 31% of Quincy residents—and 39% of public school students—identify as Asian.  

Today, a quarter of participants in BCNC’s core programs live in Quincy, reinforcing the importance of the organization’s expansion into the city. While the Asian American community continues to grow and thrive, access to culturally responsive services has not kept pace—highlighting the urgent need for programs that address the unique needs of this diverse and dynamic population..
