On September 12, the Mayor’s Office of Asian and Pacific Islander Affairs will host the AAPI Action Forum at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center from 9:30 AM to 2:30 PM.
This forum will be a rare opportunity for members of all parts of the AAPI community to come together and talk with each other about the most important issues we encounter in our daily lives. Some representatives of the Latino and African immigrant communities will also be present so that we can explore ways for multi-cultural cooperation on areas of common concern. This highly interactive meeting will give everyone who attends an opportunity to express their views in lively small group discussions. We will also have computers at every table and use keypad polling technology to collect data throughout the day.
The purpose of the forum is to identify specific action priorities for the AAPI community on issues relating to health care, education, economic empowerment, housing and public safety. It will be an informative, entertaining and productive meeting with free breakfast and free lunch served to all participants.
