Taipei Youth Program Association

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Taipei Youth Program Association (TYPA) is an independent non-profit foundation located on the campus of Taipei American School. TYPA caters to members of the international community in Taiwan; membership is restricted to holders of non-R.O.C. passports. This restriction is imposed by R.O.C. government regulations on the charter of TYPA.

The precursor to TYPA was founded in 1968 as the Taiwan Dependent Youth Activity Corps (TDYAC) by US military personnel.
