APIs Mobilize's programs empower the next generation of Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander Americans leaders to take active roles in the community through internships, leadership development trainings, and in-depth learning sessions with distinguished community leaders.
"APIs Mobilize has opened my eyes to the work that our predecessors had partaken in, and the work that is still left to be done. It also connected me to organizations and individuals I still keep in touch with, and I am supremely grateful for the knowledge and resources it has provided me with."
