- RESEARCH - OUR EFFORTS TO AMPLIFY THE NEEDS OF AAPI WOMEN IN THE POLICY AND ADVOCACY SPACE REQUIRE THAT WE SHARE DATA WHICH HIGHLIGHT THEIR UNIQUE EXPERIENCES AND PROVIDE THE EVIDENCE NECESSARY TO ADVOCATE FOR SYSTEMIC CHANGES.

BECAUSE OF THIS GAPING HOLE IN RESEARCH ON THE FASTEST GROWING RACIAL GROUP IN THE US, NAPAWF HAS NEEDED TO CONDUCT ITS OWN RESEARCH TO PROVIDE DATA TO SUPPORT OUR POLICY, ADVOCACY, AND COMMUNITY ORGANIZING.
