A Community of Contrasts: Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders in the Northeast, 2013

Please join Asian Americans Advancing Justice, the Asian American Federation, and Asia Society for the launch of A Community of Contrasts: Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders in the Northeast, 2013.

A Community of Contrasts: Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders in the Northeast, 2013 compiles the latest data on growing Asian American and NHPI communities in New York, Boston, and Philadelphia. This is the fifth in a series of reports that strive to make disaggregated data more accessible in order to promote better understanding of our communities, and to help policy makers, government agencies, service providers, and other stakeholders better respond to and serve the needs of Asian American and NHPI communities.

Our program will include a presentation of key findings from the New York section of the report, followed by a panel of local community leaders who will speak about the implications of the data for their work and the communities they serve.

We would like to thank the sponsors who made the report and this launch event possible: the Wallace H. Coulter Foundation, the Chung Ying Tang Foundation, and Bank of America.
