Hello all,

Not sure whether you have received this announcement or not. It's about the White House AAPI Initiative on a Google+ Hangout on Thursday for a series of announcements about new plans to expand opportunities at the national level and increase community engagement at the local level. Building on themes outlined in President Obama’s State of the Union speech last month, the new programs could have a major impact on access to federal services and protections for AAPI communities.

It'll be tomorrow at 3pm EST. Just email Rebecca Lee at 202-245-6353 or rebec...@ed.gov  for access if you are interested.


Stay well.


Dr. Lee
