Are you concerned about anti-Asian hate and harassment? Would you like to learn about what you can do to protect yourself and others when you experience hate and harassment? Asian Americans Advancing Justice – AAJC ([link removed]) and Right To Be ([link removed]) have partnered to offer training for the Asian American community entitled “How To Respond to Harassment and Practice Resilience When People Experience Anti-Asian / American Harassment.”


Over the past year, twelve community-based organizations ([link removed]) have joined this effort and have brought this training to local communities in-person. These organizations are offering training in thirteen Asian languages, including Cantonese, Dari, Hindi, Hmong, Karen, Khmer, Korean, Lao, Mandarin, Nepali, Pashto, Tagalog, and Vietnamese, plus English.


We recognize that many in our communities are experiencing fear and heightened anxiety at this time, and we wish to expand access to these trainings. If you are looking for an opportunity to learn and spend time in (virtual) community, please consider attending one of our online trainings and encouraging your family members and friends to join too. With our partners, we have launched a series of online trainings, starting with yesterday’s training in English led by Asian Americans Advancing Justice Southern California ([link removed]) .

We now are sharing information about two upcoming sessions of our “How To Respond to Harassment and Practice Resilience When People Experience Anti-Asian / American Harassment” training next week, and will be announcing additional sessions soon.
