💕 Building Community at PAACH Looks Like…
Learning
In collaboration with Penn’s Asian American Studies (ASAM) Program, hosts co-curricular events focusing on Asian American research, culture, history, politics, and social issues.
Building Community
Jenny Fan, ENG ’17, says that the Asian Pacific American Leadership Initiative (APALI) introduced her to, “a dialogue about personal cultural identities and where those identities placed us in society. I’m so grateful that it made me aware of APA achievements, historical roots, and issues of concern that still need to be addressed. For the welcoming inclusion that APALI and PAACH offered, it has honestly been among the greatest experiences I have ever had in my life.”
Likewise, the Spice Collective—a discussion and organizing space for API non-cis men—provides a space for intersectional identity exploration, notably through the lens of race and gender. The Collective goes on a retreat, facilitates bi-weekly discussions, and arranges activities throughout the semester to maintain an active community. These are just a few of the 18 organizations that PAACH supports within student life.
