About
The American Mandarin Society (AMS) is a nonpartisan, nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization, founded in 2011, focused on strengthening American capacity for effective engagement with China.
AMS’ 4,000-plus members have lived in China, Taiwan, and other Chinese-speaking societies, speak Mandarin Chinese, and want to contribute meaningfully to their country’s effort to deepen its engagement with the Asia-Pacific. Our steadily growing membership includes federal, state, and city government employees, businesspeople, scholars, employees of civil society groups, and other professionals. AMS’ commitment to supporting these Americans is rooted in the conviction that prosperity, stability, and peace in the entire Pacific region depend on it.
