Not Just Another Tool in the Toolbox

Tawal Panyacosit, Executive Director of API Equality Northern California


When Alice Y. Hom, Director of the Queer Justice Fund, first mentioned that she was working on a report on funding disparities for LGBTQ AAPI communities, I was excited. I remember telling her it would become one of my bibles, my go-to resources on the LGBTQ AAPI community.

Part 4: Civic Engagement Fund (CEF) Critical Collaboration Series

Simran Kaur, The Sikh Coalition


Consensus building is an incredibly powerful process in decision-making. When groups want strong support for a project, by all members, consensus building is not only beneficial but it is also impactful. Consensus building has a rich history and has been used by various communities, groups and political movements over time.

ASATA as an organization feels empowered to know that we are part of a greater movement.
