We are excited to announce the first webinar of a three-part series that will offer insights on planning, housing, public health, and economic development issues facing various Asian and Pacific Islander (API) communities in the United States.  Two additional webinars featuring other API communities are scheduled in March and June. API communities have a historic and growing identity in many American cities.  These communities are vibrant and provide essential support for established and recent immigrants in the United States.  Despite their strong cultural presence, their voice in the broader governance and political dialogue is often under-represented or misunderstood. The January 24th webinar will feature panelists from the Vietnamese community in San Jose, California, the Hmong community in St. Paul, Minnesota, the Cambodian community in Long Beach, California, and the Thai community in Los Angeles.  Community leaders will discuss their unique and shared experiences and how their city or organization is supporting, advocating, and empowering their respective communities.
