Advocacy
Government policies shape and define what housing can be built and where. Those policies also impact which neighborhoods thrive and which fail; which become destinations and which become mere right of ways for others to travel through. Like other minority communities, Asian American and Pacific Islanders have for too long been either ignored by policy makers or have become the victims of the agendas of others. National CAPACD seeks to provide a forum for fostering greater participation in the policy making process and to support policy reform that advances building a more inclusive nation.
