Local and National Resources
By Minnesota state statute, the Council is tasked with working for implementation of economic, social, legal, and political equality for Asian Pacific Minnesotans. However, we are a small organization and cannot provide every resource our community needs - particularly during emergent situations. For other local and national resources that may be able to provide assistance during this time, visit these organizations:
