• Have you ever dreamed of being part of a collective, diverse Asian and Pacific Islander community?
• Have you ever imagined working not only cross-culturally, but with 4 generations of activists and leaders?

Now is the time to join APANO and turn your hopes into reality!  You can join online at www.apano.org, starting at $5/year.  Membership builds a stronger API Voice in Oregon, with decision-makers, and for policy advocacy.  Members have access to the Members-Only area on the website with information and reports related to the API Community, as well as a Directory of Members which is a great networking resource.

We are excited to announce two major APANO Events!  More information and a flyer will be posted next week, but mark your calendars now!
