Chinese Americans have historically been under-served and under-represented in the U.S., and the recent pandemic has underscored the economic, social, and racial challenges that persist in Chinese American communities today.
Columbia University and Committee of 100 have jointly developed a first-of-its-kind nationwide survey to paint a comprehensive picture of the status and needs of Chinese Americans. This survey will gather data that will inform recommendations for policies and programs that aim to better serve Chinese American communities.
Join representatives from Columbia University and Committee of 100 on November 3 to learn more about the survey and how you can amplify the voices of Chinese Americans by getting your organizations and communities involved.
Who should attend
This webinar is for anyone interested in taking the survey, and for community-based organizations, professional associations, student groups, or any organizations with a Chinese American membership/audience, who would like to be involved in this national survey. It is also for policy makers, academics, and the media who are interested in data on Chinese American populations.
What will you learn
Representatives from Columbia University and Committee of 100, including the research teams, will discuss why this survey is being conducted, how the data will be used, and how you can be a part of this timely research effort.
