We believe that it is important to include Asian Americans in the broader narratives of our society, and we are enthusiastic about uplifting the voices of the next generation of Asian American leaders in our community.

The purpose of this program is to cultivate the next generation of Asian American leaders. We aim to create an inclusive environment in which students will explore topics and ideas related to Asian American Studies and the practices of community-building. We will also investigate the interconnections between self-care and caring for one’s community, as a critical first step to addressing and confronting anti-Asian hate and discrimination in society.
