Að meta þá visku milli kynslóða sem samfélag okkar hefur þýðir að rækta þroskandi tengsl milli kynslóða. Við miðum við raddir ungs fólks og forystu þegar við höldum áfram að vaxa. Nærandi samfélag Það er mikilvægt að skapa rými fyrir nám, ígrundun og tjáningu í gegnum miðla eins og menningar-/andlegar listir og bókmenntamiðla. Við byggjum og lyftum hvort öðru upp af ást, samúð og samúð. Skuldbinding til jafnræðis og réttlætis Að miðja raddir og lífsreynslu kúgaðra samfélaga kemur fyrst. Við verðum að viðurkenna skurðpunkt forréttinda og kúgunar. Við erum staðráðin í að berjast gegn yfirburði hvítra með and-rasista linsu.

Við gerum okkur grein fyrir samtengingu kúgunar okkar og vinnu þeirra sem komu á undan okkur. Við byggjum starf okkar á baráttu frumbyggja.

A Guide to Naturalization Innflytjendaréttlæti Til þess að AAPI innflytjendur í Washington fylki geti lifað fullu, öruggu og heilbrigðu lífi þurfum við öruggar og stuðningsstofnanir og stefnur sem þjóna öllum einstaklingum óháð stöðu innflytjenda. Hvers vegna er þetta mikilvægt? Vegna laga um velferðarumbætur frá 1996 eru margir innflytjendur ekki gjaldgengir fyrir öryggisnetsáætlanir fyrstu fimm ár búsetu sinnar og ótti vegna opinberra gjalda hefur dregið úr fleiri innflytjendum að sækja þjónustu. Af þeim yfir 800.000 AAPI sem búa í Washington fylki er um helmingur fæddur erlendis. Þetta felur í sér um 60.000 óskráða AAPI (það eru um 1,7 milljónir óskráða AAPI á landsvísu) . 73% asískra Bandaríkjamanna í Washington tala annað tungumál en ensku heima og af þeim tala meira en 44% ensku minna en „mjög vel“. Um 60.707 asískir Bandaríkjamenn í Washington (10%) búa við fátækt og um 7.951 NHPI í Washington (17%) búa við fátækt, sem táknar þörfina fyrir opinbera aðstoð. Öfugt við almennar frásagnir er mikil félagshagfræðileg, þjóðernisleg og tungumála-/menningarleg fjölbreytni meðal AAPI hópa. Til dæmis eru miðgildi tekna fyrir indversk heimili $115.105, en miðgildi tekna fyrir Hmong heimila er $53.717. Í því skyni styður APIC aðgang þinn að ókeypis/skertri lögfræðiaðstoð og mælir fyrir eftirfarandi stefnuráðleggingum: Stækkaðu LEP-leiðir: LEP fjármögnun stuðlar að efnahagslegri sjálfsbjargarviðleitni fyrir flóttamenn og innflytjendur með starfsþjálfunaráætlunum, ESL námskeiðum og vinnustuðningi sem veitir traustan grunn fyrir atvinnutækifæri og náttúruvæðingu. LEP veitir einnig öldruðum aðgang að heilbrigðis- og félagsþjónustu. Fjármögnun LEP Pathways var skorin niður eftir samdráttinn og hefur ekki síðan verið endurheimt í upprunalegri upphæð. Auka fjárframlög til náttúrfræðiþjónustu: Náttúruverndaráætlun Washington-ríkis hjálpar flóttamönnum og innflytjendum að verða ríkisborgarar, með aðstoð við umsókn um ríkisborgararétt, ensku- og borgaranámskeið og undirbúning viðtala. Aldraðir og fatlaðir flóttamenn og innflytjendur eru aðalviðtakendur náttúruverndaráætlunarinnar. Úthluta fjármunum til Lögverndarsjóðs: Samkvæmt lögum er innflytjendum ekki tryggður aðgangur að lögfræðingi og lenda þeir oft í útlendingadómstólum án lögmanns. Þessi sjóður er nauðsynlegur til að veita innflytjendum viðeigandi úrræði og tæki sem þeir þurfa til að vera í samfélagi sínu, óháð því hvort þeir hafa efni á lögfræðingi. Auka hæfi atvinnuleysisbóta: Með eina stærstu efnahagskreppu sögunnar yfirvofandi, eiga óskráðir starfsmenn alveg eins skilið aðgang að atvinnuleysistryggingum. Það er nauðsynlegt að stækka atvinnuleysisbætur til allra til að styðja og efla alla innflytjendur. Verndaðu óskráða innflytjendur: Með samþykkt Halda vinnu og dómstólum í Washington opnum öllum ætti ríkisstjórn okkar að halda áfram að forgangsraða öryggi óskráðra Washingtonbúa og lágmarka vald og aðgerðir alríkisinnflytjendaeftirlitsstofnana. Þetta felur í sér að halda áfram að binda enda á óviðeigandi samstarf ríkisstofnana og innflytjendaeftirlitsstofnana, auka völd og tíðni náðunar ríkisstjóra og hætta fangageymslum í hagnaðarskyni.
