APIDA Tulsa is dedicated to fostering a sense of community and belonging among Asian Americans in Tulsa. Our aim is to create a safe space for individuals to come together, share experiences, and celebrate our cultures. Find us at one of several cultural events each year, join our online community, or get involved as a volunteer to make a difference.
Our Mission
Our mission is to advocate for and elevate the voices of the Asian American, Pacific Islander/Native Hawaiian, Desi American community, with a focus on three pillars:
Unity and Advocacy
Promoting unity and equity by bridging the gap between local policymakers and the community, providing a voice that advocates for the needs of the APIDA community.
Visibility and Education
Raising awareness and providing educational resources about common APIDA issues and misconceptions such as the model minority myth and how it has been used as racial wedge between Asians and other minority groups.
Community Building
Celebrating APIDA culture through social and cultural events, community-building, partnerships, and volunteer efforts.
