APAPA chapter leaders are committed to supporting all our communities in collaboration with community leaders and partners to promote inclusion and public service. We ensure that our collective voices are heard on important issues such as voting rights, public safety, and education.

This past year, we have actively spoke for Lunar New Year to be recognized as an official state holiday, and for all Americans’ history to be included in the K-12 educational curriculum nationwide. Additionally, we continue to fight against the spread of hate crimes and misinformation in all communities. We also conduct public education and awareness campaigns. We strengthen community engagement and support chapter leaders to become effective partners in their community.

APAPA deeply appreciates the efforts of legislators who prioritize the well-being of all our communities. Each year, we also collaborate directly with legislators and congressional members from California to Washington DC for civic engagement.
