Key Program
Civic Engagement
Your vote matters! Our Civic Engagement program is all about promoting a democracy which elevates AANHPI, BIPOC, and marginalized voices in Arizona through voter education and registration. We foster inclusive participation to ensure these communities are heard in policy decisions that affect their lives.
Key Program
Youth Leadership
Through our internships, annual Youth Climate and Connection Camp, and AANHPI Youth Leaders Fellowship, we aim to empower Arizona’s AANHPI youth by providing hands-on opportunities to cultivate their leadership skills, deepen connections to their cultural roots, and make a positive and direct impact in their communities.
Key Program
Climate Justice
From Guam to Hawaiʻi to Arizona, our AANHPI communities are greatly impacted by our global climate crisis.
Together, through town halls, educational workshops, and collective action, we have the power to create a just and sustainable future for all. Rethinking Climate Action is a matter of human existence and preserving culture!
