API RISE was established with a mission to support formerly incarcerated Asian Pacific Islanders as they reintegrate into society. Having personally experienced this journey, this work holds a special place in my heart, and it’s been incredibly rewarding to see our organization grow into a community rooted in hope and resilience. Every day, we’re dedicated to providing the practical and emotional support needed for individuals to rebuild their lives after incarceration. 

Over the past decade, thousands of API sisters, brothers, and siblings have been supported by API RISE thanks to the generosity and commitment from partners like you. The evening reception will feature inspiring stories, cultural performances, and an opportunity to build with leaders in our community who share our dedication to making a meaningful impact.
