The Massachusetts Asian American and Pacific Islanders Commission (AAPIC) was established on October 29, 2006, and is the only permanent statewide entity dedicated to championing the causes and concerns of Asian Americans. Today, as the AAPIC, our extended mission includes:

  • Celebrating the significant roles Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders play across various spheres of the Commonwealth, including social, cultural, economic, and political realms.
  • Actively identifying and addressing the unique challenges faced by residents of Asian and Pacific Islander heritage.
  • Fostering the growth and prosperity of our diverse community to ensure a brighter future for every resident of Massachusetts.

Join us as we advocate for and with the dynamic and multifaceted AAPI community, embodying the spirit and aspirations of the broader Massachusetts family.
