About us
Mission The Asian Pacific American Institute for Congressional Studies (APAICS) is a national non-partisan, nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to promoting Asian American and Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander participation and representation at all levels of the political process, from community service to elected office. APAICS programs focus on developing leadership, building public policy knowledge, and filling the political pipeline for Asian Americans and Native Hawaiians/Pacific Islanders to pursue public office at the local, state, and federal levels. History APAICS was founded alongside the Congressional Asian Pacific American Caucus (CAPAC) in 1994 by former Secretary Norman Y. Mineta. Originally founded as the Congressional Asian Pacific American Caucus Institute (CAPACI), APAICS continues to support CAPAC by serving as a resource to Congress and promoting a politically active and civically engaged Asian Pacific American community. Partners APAICS partners with the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation (CBCF) and Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute (CHCI) to offer several joint programs throughout the year. Participants learn about coalition building and develop a greater understanding of the needs and challenges faced by different underserved minority groups.

💐⭐ 2024 Women's Collective Summit ✨💗 Two weeks ago, we held our annual Women’s Collective Summit in Seattle, WA and it was one for the books! 👏 Our attendees participated in meaningful discussions and formed long-lasting bonds with one another. Through breakout sessions and diverse panels, we explored topics such allyship and how we can best support emerging Gen Z leaders. We're honored to have fostered such a welcoming and inspiring space for AA & NH/PI female leaders and elected officials to come together. 🫶 At the Spotlight Dinner, Wichita Mayor Lily Wu and Kentucky State Representative Nima Kulkarni received Spotlight Awards for their trailblazing leadership in office. Thank you to Amazon for hosting this year’s summit. We’d also like to thank all of our partners at Microsoft, Edison International, Instacart, and McDonald's for supporting our summit.

It was amazing to partner with Asian Pacific American Institute for Congressional Studies (APAICS) to arrange face-to-face meetings between students of Asian descent and their representatives on Capitol Hill, including Sen. Brian Schatz, Rep. Judy Chu, Rep. Andy Kim, and Rep. Jill Tokuda. #CloseUpDC #HillDay #WashingtonDC #Civics
