Lead Agency: Asian and Pacific Islanders with Disabilities in California [1]
A two-year project based in Oakland, California, is working to strengthen the staff and board of the lead agency, so that it can successfully give a face and voice to AAs and NHPIs with mental and physical disabilities. The project provides technical assistance to community-based organizations and leadership training to individuals with disabilities, conducts data research, and is developing a statewide, web-based clearinghouse of resources and information. It also will work to increase awareness and understanding by mainstream as well as AA and NHPI groups about the issues and best practices for addressing disabilities for AAs and NHPIs.
