This convening aims to bring together NYC’s AAPI and allied parents and caregivers to discuss the experiences and issues most relevant to AAPI families. We aim to create a shared learning community where parents and caregivers will explore and strengthen their understanding of and relationship to their own identities, deepen the connections between social justice and equity in relation to systems and community, and equipped with the tools to advocate for themselves, their families, and the wider AAPI community as a whole.
