AAPI Hate Incident Reporting Form
Hate incidents include any acts of hostility or violence, physical or verbal, motivated by bias against race or ethnicity, national origin, religion, gender identity, sexuality, or disability. One example of bias would be assuming that an AAPI individual is infected with COVID-19, or that person’s ethnic group is responsible for creating or spreading COVID-19. Even if you are not 100% sure that the incident you experienced was motivated by one of these biases, you should still file a report.
Filing a report with OCA-Asian Pacific American Advocates will help advocacy organizations nationwide fight for the civil rights of all AAPIs. There is no obligation for you to disclose your name, gender, ethnicity, or contact information. If you do not want to disclose this information, please state “Anonymous” or “N/A” when appropriate.
You are not required to file a report with any law enforcement agency. However, OCA encourages you to report to law enforcement independently, if possible.
