Asian American Power Network

Asian American Power Network is an alliance of state-based Asian American 501(c)(4) organizations building power to win concrete changes for our local communities and build solidarity across communities of color. We share resources, incubate new organizations through coaching and capacity building, hone best practices and tactics for voter engagement; and implement political strategy to move Asian Americans broadly on progressive policy and racial justice. AAPN is a fiscally sponsored project of the Center for Empowered Politics.
