Program accomplishments

  • Pasifika Food NetWorks - Our Pasifika Food NetWorks program was established to combat the devestating impacts of food insecurity experienced by NHPI communities through providing region-specific access to culturally appropriate foods throughout Washington state.
    Expenses $188,980 · grants $18,582
  • Wellness Navigation - Our Wellness Navigation program is modeled after the Community Health Workers model in understanding that the health of our Pasifika communities is linked not just to accessing healthcare, but also in addressing the social determinants of health which includes access to housing, trasnportation, food, social belonging, employment and education. Our Wellness Navigators are equipped to support Pasifika families in navigating services offered in our NHPI networks and offered outside of our networks. They provide supports to combat housing insecurity, access to healthcare and other critical supports. Wellness Navigation also focuses on the cultural stewardship of our elders through providing elder social support services.
    Expenses $2,065,765 · grants $1,435,011
  • Pasifika Wayfinder and Chapter Coordination - Pasifika Wayfinders celebrate the leadership of our youth through honoring their traditional roles as Wayfinders. They are supporting our Pasifika Diaspora in wayfinding through societal challenges by creating spaces for their peers to find belonging and to strengthen their voices within the communities they live in. Our unoffical chapters across Washington state coordinate to carry out the programming.
