Welcome!

The Asian American Resource Workshop works for the empowerment of the Asian Pacific American community to achieve its full participation in U.S. society. We are a member-based organization that uses arts, education, and activism to build the skills and political analysis of our pan-Asian membership. Our resources and activities are used to respond to current Asian Pacific American issues and to promote Asian Pacific American identity.
