According to the TAH Our Journeys memoir (#316), the New York Taiwanese American Center (紐約台灣會館) formed a senior-center management committee at the end of 2003 with 林秀合 as 執行長 coordinating activities among the associations — consistent with her role as Executive Director of the NY Taiwanese American Senior Center. The committee was chaired by 賴弘典醫師, with seven members: three 會館 directors (陳春蘭, 蔡明峰, 尤欽德) and four representatives of the former senior associations (何錦華, 吳淑慧, 周秀琴, 吳發鎮). The center and its management committee began operations in January 2004 — see [[works/taiwaneseamericanhistory-org/ourjourneys316|Our Journeys #316]].

Connected in the Vault (deepen pass 2026-09-10)

  • 2014 — Named as a New York City contact (718-454-0855) for the “Team Taiwan” Race for the Cure team in 葉寶桂’s call for participation: [[works/taiwaneseamericanhistory-org/ourjourneys6|TAH Our Journeys #6, 2014-08-10]]. The article names NATWA, TAA and WUFI among Team Taiwan’s founding associations — consistent with her presidencies of NATWA NYC and TAA New York.
  • Her senior-center leadership is corroborated by two vault works: [[works/taiwaneseamericanhistory-org/ourjourneys316|Our Journeys #316]] (2003 senior-center committee, 執行長) and NY Taiwan Center senior center.
