Language accessibility is crucial for hate crime victims, and CBOs are vital in providing these services. Funding recipients can request an extra $1000 per direct service worker for bilingual pay. With this investment, we can ensure that LEP API Californians are not left behind.

It's 2023, but ALL Asians are still labeled as "Other"? 😒

Great news! AB943 (Kalra) just cleared the Senate Public Safety Committee! It calls on the CDCR to publish ALL hidden categories under 'Other' including AAPIs. Next stop: Senate floor. TY to our author @Ash_Kalra #CALeg

“We deserve to exist, be here, & not be scared.”

Over 400+ pieces of anti-LGBTQIA+ legislation has presented or passed across the US! We marched with thousands at the inaugural Drag March to fight back against attacks on transgender people & stand with our LGBTQIA+ community.

Sei Fujii v. California struck down a California law that prevented Asian immigrants from owning land. This ruling was a step forward in lessening the legal discrimination many Japanese Americans faced in the aftermath of World War II.
