API Community Briefing 

On March 31, 2020, SEIU 1000’s Asian Pacific Islander Committee leaders attended a community briefing via Zoom. The event was sponsored by the National Council of Asian Pacific Americans (NCAPA) to hear how elected officials and community leaders are addressing the rise of hate crimes and anti-Asian sentiment due to the coronavirus outbreak and cover ground on many aspects of how COVID-19 is affecting Asian American communities at large.

Elected officials, including Senator Kamala Harris, Congresswoman Judy Chu, Congressman Mark Takano, Congressman Ted Lieu, and other community & business leaders, joined the briefing.
