Every year, hundreds of Asian American seniors come to our seminars to learn about the phone calls, the fake bills, and the strangers who target them. An NYPD officer stands at the front of the room. A roomful of elders goes home safer.
See the seminars →As anti-Asian violence climbed, our council took to the streets beside the NYPD and our neighbors under one banner, Let's End Hate Crime Together. We showed our community it would never have to face hate by itself.
Read the story →When an officer is hurt in the line of duty, the family carries it long after. Since 1998, in partnership with the NYC Police Benevolent Association, we have given to a scholarship fund for their children. It is how we say thank you and mean it.
About the fund →We meet students where they are, with honest talks about drugs, bullying, and staying safe, led by officers they can actually trust. The earlier the bridge is built, the stronger it holds.
Our youth programs →We began in New York's Korean-American community in the 1990s. As the work grew, so did the community it served. Today, as the Asian American Law Enforcement Advisory Council, we carry the same mission to every Asian American community in the city. The name has widened. The purpose has not.
Your gift funds the seminars that protect our elders, the programs that guide our youth, and the fund that supports the families of officers hurt in the line of duty.
