In any community work, leadership capacity is essential. We have demonstrated this at AAJC via our
Community Partners Network, which has expanded to include nearly 100 community partners in 49 cities across 23 states, and Washington, D.C.
Created to build the capacity of
Asian American communities, we work hand-in-hand with community-based organizations, conducting workshops and trainings on various issues of importance to local communities.
The network provides a critical link allowing AAJC to target underserved populations, such as recent South Asian and Southeast Asian immigrants.
