APAPA Indiana Chapter has launched its inaugural "Key Leadership Program", on May 21, designed to empower emerging Asian Americans in their 20s & 30s in Indianapolis & Central Indiana through networking, civic engagement, and professional development.
This 5-month program will provide participants with the skills, network, and hands-on experiences needed to make a lasting impact in our communities. We are currently seeking applicants who are passionate about leadership, advocacy, and shaping the future of Indianapolis.
