Socially just? Leader? Care about the APIA community?

Then you should apply for the Youth Advisory Council for the Asian American Center for Advancing Justice (AAJC)! I'd love to see more folks in our community expressing their social just-ness any and every way they can!    <3 Athena

Some information below:


Flex your social entrepreneurship skills to address issues of racial equity pertinent to the AAPI community. Youth Advisory Council members will have the opportunity to:  
•    meet local and national policy movers, shakers and makers
