National Asian Pacific American Women's Forum (NAPAWF) is the only
organization focused on building power with AAPI women and girls to
influence critical decisions that affect our lives, our families
and our communities. Using a reproductive justice framework, we
elevate AAPI women and girls to impact policy and drive systemic
change in the United States.
NAPAWF was founded in 1996 to realize the vision of 100 AAPI women
who recognized the need for an organization that would amplify AAPI
women's stories and experiences. Being seen and heard in the public
narrative gives us the power to shape the policy and cultural
change needed to gain agency over our lives, families, and
communities.
Today, we are mobilizing and building power in cities across the
United States to create social, political, and economic change for
AAPI women and girls. Five of those cities have local staff on the
ground. We also show up in solidarity for other women of color who
are experiencing injustice and harms of oppression and
marginalization.
Our work is focused in the following strategies:

three core issues:
