MinKwon Center for Community Action Inc. (c3)
2024 Programs
The APA VOICE Campus Program will move Asian-American college communities in Long Island and upstate New York. We will train and re-activate youth alumni to lead and implement a localized GOTV plan that moves their campus community and the local Asian-American electorate. Voter registration work focuses on registering new citizens.
Mission
