APALA to Host 16th Biennial Convention Virtually from Aug. 5-8

The Asian Pacific American Labor Alliance (APALA) will host its 16th biennial convention virtually from August 5-8, 2021. The convention brings together hundreds of organizers, workers, allies and young leaders to demonstrate their collective power as an Asian American Pacific Islander (AAPI) community. Through a variety of workshops, plenaries and town halls, the groups discuss issues pertinent to moving towards economic, social and racial justice. 

Register now to reserve your spot at the convention.

Delegates must register their credentials with the Credentials Committee no later than Thursday, August 5 at 8 p.m. ET/ 5 p.m. PT.

Founded in 1992, the Asian Pacific American Labor Alliance (APALA), AFL-CIO, is the first and only national organization of Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) workers, most of whom are union members and our allies, building power for AAPI workers and communities.

The AFL-CIO recently recognized IAM District 751 Chief of Staff Jason Chan, who sits on the APALA board, as part of their Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month member spotlight.
