Giving Voice to the Korean American Community
A National AAPI Leadership Summit will be held July 11-12, 2024 in Philadelphia to learn about emerging voting issues and how to mobilize the Asian American and Pacific Islander communities.
The event, to take place at the Sheraton Philadelphia Downtown, is a platform for partner organizations, issue experts, and communities from across the country. The purpose is to empower Asian American and Pacific Islander AAPI communities to make their voices heard during a historic election year.
Information about specific workshops and speakers will be available in the months leading up to the event. Registration will be $40 for general admission and $20 for students.
The Summit is sponsored by Asian and Pacific Islander American Vote (APIAVote) the nation’s leading nonpartisan non-profit organization dedicated to engaging, educating, and empowering (AAPI) communities to strengthen and sustain a culture of civic engagement. It advocates for policies that protect the freedom to vote, increases equity for communities of color and guards against discriminatory practices.
The Summit will culminate Saturday, July 13 with a Presidential Town Hall at the Pennsylvania Convention Center in Philadelphia. Presidential candidates will have time to directly address AAPI community members, leaders, and organizers about the issues important to this growing electorate.
