AAPI communities need culturally accessible support more than ever. We urge the @NYCCouncil to fund the 18% and Growing campaign’s FY 27 priorities. #18PercentandGrowing#BudgetEquity
This morning, Homecrest joined the @cacf-led #18PercentAndGrowing rally in Bensonhurst to demand a fair and equitable city budget for AAPI
New Yorkers. So many powerful speeches today, including one from our very own President & CEO, @wai_yee_chan calling for justice and equity!
CACF and our member + partners will be out in full force throughout the week advocating for a fair + equitable NYC Budget!

AANHPI women need comprehensive equal pay policies, such as union representation, that would help break harmful patterns of pay discrimination and strengthen workplace protections for AANHPI women. #NotYourModelMinority#AANHPIEqualPay
We know what drives the wage gap for #AANHPI women and moms, but we have real solutions at our fingertips! We need the #PaycheckFairnessAct so that women, moms, and families can thrive! #AANHPIEqualPay
Student loan debt & the ability to afford a home or raise a family are big issues women face today. If the wage gap closed, AANHPI women could afford to pay off student loan debt in 39 months, make 7 months of mortgage payments or buy 15 months' worth of food. #AANHPIEqualPay
Often times, the #WageGaps that AANHPI women face are overlooked because they’re held up as the “model minority” but individual accomplishments can’t overcome systemic racism. #AANHPIEqualPay#NotYourModelMinority https://t.co/hcWAnJyOrM
AANHPI women are overrepresented in certain jobs – where they lose over $17,000 each year compared to white men in similar jobs. #AANHPIEqualPay https://t.co/65LDCyIaeD
If the #WageGap were eliminated, AANHPI women working in the U.S. would regain more than $11,000 that they lose to the wage gap every year. #AANHPIEqualPay https://t.co/2lTS4Py0OI
Combining data for over 25 unique ethnic groups in one number does not give you an accurate picture. We need to #DisaggregateData to get us closer to #AANHPIEqualPay.
For every $1 earned by white, non-Hispanic men, AANHPI women earn 80¢. This wage gap means less money to thrive, to support our families, and to use as a cushion for job loss and hard times. #AANHPIEqualPay
We need to correct the model minority myth and misconception that AANHPI women don’t need resources or support. To start, we need to look at the giant pay gaps that AANHPI ethnic groups face. #NotYourModelMinority#AANHPIEqualPay
