CAIR Washington was established in 2002 by Seattle-area activists who saw a need to create a center for professional American Muslim activism in Washington State. Since that time, CAIR-WA has grown into a legal and policy powerhouse – boasting victories like suing and winning against the Trump administration, hosting hundreds of Muslim activists at our annual Muslim Day at the Capitol (MDAC) in Olympia, WA, and partnering with WA state reps to get statewide religious accommodations passed for post-secondary Muslim students.
