Recruiting and Supporting Candidates to Run for Office

In the United States, Asian American, Native Hawaiian & Pacific Islander (AANHPI) folks make up over 6% of the population, yet only 0.9% of elected officials identify as AANHPI. As the fastest-growing demographic in the country, this disparity highlights the urgent need for greater representation.

To address this, we are excited to collaborate once again with Public Wise on a special edition of our "Recruiting and Supporting Candidates to Run for Office" training, tailored specifically for aspiring AANHPI candidates and their supporters.

We're here to help, so join us to learn the following: 

• Discuss ways to find quality candidates to run for office

• Review approaches for persuading first time candidates to run

• Describe how you might best support a prospective candidate to and through the decision to run

If you’re AANHPI and passionate about driving change in your community, we invite you to attend and take the first step towards a significant impact.
