Dear Friends, Neighbors, and Colleagues,

Asian Pacific American Heritage Month is celebrated annually in May to highlight the history, heritage and contributions of Asian Pacific American communities. 
Did You Know? 💡 In our state, the Asian Pacific American population grew by 27.1% during the past decade, from 134,091 residents in 2010 to 170,459 in 2020.

During the legislative session, we passed SB 1 which requires Asian American and Pacific Islander studies to be included in social studies curriculums to ensure that children learn about the important role this community has played in the development of our country.
