FAPAC proudly announces the 2017 Theme for Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month

Unite Our Voices by Speaking Together

The theme this year provides a single focus for all AAPI’s to unite by speaking together. This theme encourages the various AAPI communities to join together to overcome misconceptions and stereotypes about the vibrant and diverse AAPI community. The AAPI experience varies greatly and all groups must join together to communicate our individual experiences. Diversity is a Journey and we can not travel there alone. By uniting our voices, we can raise issues and tell stories that elevate the AAPI community. With this theme, we hope to improve representation in the workplace by communicating the benefits of a diverse workforce.

“No community should be invisible to its government.” President Barack Obama, October 14, 2009

2017 National Leadership Training Program

The FAPAC 32nd National Leadership Training Program returns to the Hilton Rockville, Rockville MD from May 15-19, 2017. During this training, AAPI leaders will identify barriers that stifle AAPI progress and work towards solutions that elevate the AAPI community. We will offer educational workshops, informative plenaries, and programs for students and veterans.

It is a transformative experience for attendees. If you have attended before, we want to welcome you back and share some exciting additions with you! And if you have never been a part of this experience, then make this the year you participate.

We are busy behind the scenes assembling a lineup of inspiring keynotes and motivational workshops, but registration is open and ready for you! Now is the time to register and reserve your hotel room.
