Thank you @GovKathyHochul, @AndreaSCousins, and @CarlHeastie for guaranteeing New York's AAPI communities will be seen in the budget!

The Equity Budget Coalition joins New Yorkers across the state in celebrating this $30 million investment in our communities.

As proud members of the Equity Budget Coalition, we are thrilled to see Albany's $30 million investment in AAPI communities across New York State. Thank you @GovKathyHochul, @AndreaSCousins, and @CarlHeastie for ensuring that our communities are seen in the NYS Budget.

Sakhi is proud to be a member of the Equity Budget Coalition, which advocates for a fair and inclusive NYS Budget that reflects the growing needs of AAPI New Yorkers. We're telling @GovKathyHochul, @AndreaSCousins + @CarlHeastie to support the FULL #AAPIEquityBudget today!

[Sakhi for South Asian Survivors @SakhiNYC]

AAPI New Yorkers deserve to be heard in the halls of power. That's why the #AAPIEquityBudget calls for the establishment of the first-ever AAPI NY State Commission. Join us as we call on @GovKathyHochul, @AndreaSCousins + @CarlHeastie to support the FULL Equity Budget today!

[Sakhi for South Asian Survivors @SakhiNYC]

Dear @GovKathyHochul, @AndreaSCousins + @CarlHeastie: The #AAPIEquityBudget provides critical funding and support to over 100 organizations providing community-informed + language-accessible programs to AAPI New Yorkers. Join us in supporting it today!

[Sakhi for South Asian Survivors @SakhiNYC]

The AAPI community is the fastest growing in New York State, yet our communities continue to be underfunded. We’re calling on @GovKathyHochul, @AndreaSCousins + @CarlHeastie to support the full $66.5M #AAPIEquityBudget so that our communities can finally access needed resources.

[Sakhi for South Asian Survivors @SakhiNYC]

New York has historically been home to some of the nation’s oldest AAPI communities, yet we've never received equitable and inclusive support from our State. @GovKathyHochul, @AndreaSCousins + @CarlHeastie let’s pass the $66.5M #AAPIEquityBudget to support AAPI New Yorkers today!

[Sakhi for South Asian Survivors @SakhiNYC]

New York State's AAPI communities continue to lag behind when it comes to getting the funding we need. The Equity Budget Coalition urges @GovKathyHochul, @AndreaSCousins and @CarlHeastie to make a vital investment in our communities by passing the $66.5M #AAPIEquityBudget.

The ROIC is little more than, in the words of one scholar, “a mini-CIA on call for cops” who
practice counterinsurgency tactics against domestic communities. https://t.co/Lw6pgr6fHa #stopislamophobia #fusioncenter @AAIUSA @MuslimARC @MuslimJustice @truthout @CAIRNational

NYS must act NOW to fully fund New York’s crime victim network. Invest in the future of survivors and stabilize NY’s crime victim services network! #saveVOCAvictimservices #valuevictimadvocates

BREAKING: NYC nurses strike to end this morning in historic victory as tentative deals were reached with both @MontefioreNYC and @MountSinaiNYC Hospital. Nurses won concrete enforceable safe staffing ratios in both deals and will be back on the job.

Mobilizing survivor power & igniting survivor voices in our community has been a part of Sakhi’s ethos since our inception in 1989. Now, we’re taking it one step further by investing in survivor leadership through our Community Engagement Program.

Our grantee partner @SakhiNYC just released their 2022 impact report! We're proud to support their work to create transformational, lasting change in the South Asian diaspora through serving survivors of gender-based violence.

@G4GC_org Thank you for sharing! 💜

Today, we ground our remembrance in the life of Mandeep Kaur, a 30-year-old Sikh Punjabi woman, whom we lost to gender-based violence in August 2022. Mandeep was a beloved mother of two, and her passing reminds us of our shared responsibility to cultivate safety.

[South Asian SOAR @southasiansoar]

Today, we uplift the inspiring life of Sania Khan, a 29-year-old, Pakistani American woman, whom we lost to gun and gender-based violence in July 2022. Friends describe Sania as “liquid sunshine” — a talented photographer, deeply supportive friend, and a fierce advocate.
