2018 Building CAPACD Convention

Building CAPACD

April 9, 2018

Overview

National CAPACD is pleased to invite you to the 2018 Building CAPACD Convention on June 18-20th in Atlanta, GA. Each year, hundreds of Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) organizations and our allies from across the country convene for our annual Building CAPACD Convention, one of the largest gatherings of community development practitioners, community organizers, policymakers, and private sector partners.

This year, we are thrilled to host our Building CAPACD Convention in Atlanta, Georgia and highlight the work of AAPI organizations and their partners in the South. From Dallas to Charlotte, the AAPI population grew by 66% from 2000 to 2010, the fastest growing racial group in the South. Our convening offers 3 days of plenaries, workshops, and networking opportunities in which we hope to explore and better understand the unique challenges and opportunities that exist in the South this year. In addition, we will share strategies and best practices, honor the history and civil rights activism rooted in Atlanta, and continue to build our coalition around our common goals of racial and economic justice. We hope you will join us for this historic event!
