About

One of the fastest growing political caucuses in Illinois, the Asian American Caucus aims to empower Asian American communities in Illinois by advancing causes important to them in city, county, and state legislative processes. We are dedicated to creating a government that is representative of Illinois's diverse Asian American communities by actively supporting Asian American candidates running for all forms of government. 

As an organization, we help bridge the gap between advocacy groups and government agencies, fostering effective collaboration and ensuring that the needs and voices of Asian Americans are heard and addressed. We advocate for respect, resources, and representation, as well as solidarity with other communities of color to promote fairness, justice, and equity for all. 

Together, we strive to educate the public about Asian American identities and issues, and to cultivate strategies and opportunities that lead to the growth and advancement of our communities.
