Membership Luncheon

During the membership luncheon held on March 27, 2008 OCA-East Bay members raised concerns facing Asian Pacific Americans in the East Bay; several concerns focused on the increasing lack of APA leaders. It was noted that an effort to connect with youth and offer information on available opportunities and on the importance APA political participation is necessary. Other issues included an East Bay program trying to increase voter turnout of registered APA absentee voters, and possible funding from Allstate for a program to combat hate crimes.
