Asian And Pacific Islander Program
The Asian and Pacific Islander program provides services with an emphasis on sensitivity to
the unique experiences of Asians and Pacific Islanders in the United States. The Asian and
Pacific Islander Program recognizes that social and economic circumstances as well as cultural
values and beliefs can hold back some members of our community from reaching out for needed
help. Volunteers who are of multi-lingual/multi-cultural Asian and Pacific Islander heritage
receive 60-80 hours of state-certified training to become counselors. Volunteers then
provide counseling, advocacy, and education services that are linguistically and culturally
appropriate for Asian and Pacific Islanders in our community.
