Asian American Pacific Islanders Coming Together (ACT) recently hosted an engaging “Coffee Chat with Madhurima Paturi” focused on immigration policy and its implications for the Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) community. The intimate gathering of 19 attendees provided a welcoming environment for meaningful dialogue and education on recent immigration policy developments, examining how these changes specifically affect AAPI families and professionals. The conversation fostered a deeper understanding of complex policy frameworks while addressing community-specific concerns and questions.
