Translations
Asian Americans Advancing Justice will produce GOTC factsheets in 15 Asian languages:
Chinese - Simplified, Chinese - Traditional, Gujarati, Hindi, Hmong, Japanese, Khmer, Korean, Lao, Nepali, Punjabi, Tagalog, Thai, Urdu, and Vietnamese. The first set of translated GOTC factsheets will be released this fall.
NHPI Census Campaign
Asian Americans Advancing Justice is partnering with Empowering Pacific Islander Communities (EPIC) ([link removed]) , to produce outreach and education materials tailored for Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander communities. As part of the process to determine what materials to produce, EPIC hosted a NHPI-focused census convening in five states to solicit feedback from the field about community needs. From these local discussions, EPIC and Advancing Justice will work to produce GOTC factsheets and content that will be translated into at least eight NHPI languages: Chamorro, Chuukese, Hawaiian, Marshallese, Palauan, Samoan, Tongan, and Vakaviti.
