Speaker Series

Our Summer Speaker Series, presented by Comcast/NBC Bay Area, delves deeper into the challenges impacting the Asian and Pacific Islander (API) community. The monthly virtual convening features speakers who can provide insights and perspectives on the chosen topic or issue. The goal of the series is to come together as a community to identify solutions and/or opportunities on how we can address and provide support for Asians and Pacific Islanders.
