Community Organizing

The core of APANO’s work is building a powerful base of members who co-create and co-lead campaigns that address real issues in their community. Our community organizing results in concrete change through policy, public investments, political influence, and greater solidarity with other communities of color and allies.

Cultural Work

By elevating members’ stories and connecting them to issues, APANO aims to advance a long-term cultural strategy to impact beliefs, actions and policies through centering the voices of those most impacted and silenced, resisting and shifting harmful narratives and ideas, and moving beyond defensive strategies to envisioning alternatives.

Leadership Development

APANO offers year-round opportunities to cultivate the skills and confidence of our members to analyze community needs and solutions, act strategically and take on increased leadership roles at APANO and in the community.
