KAC's Response to the Coronavirus (COVID-19)
KAC'S Response to the Coronavirus (COVID-19)
KAC has been closely monitoring the news and following the updates from health officials about the coronavirus (COVID-19). Our organization has been working hard to ensure that we’re being conscientious in planning our programs to prioritize the health and safety of our constituents.
Yesterday, Los Angeles County declared a state of emergency as California reported its first death related to the coronavirus. The number of coronavirus cases in the county increased to 7. We’d like to advise our community members to remain calm, take protective measures, and stay aware of the latest information about coronavirus (COVID-19). Please check out the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to learn more about how you can protect you and your community from the coronavirus.
Coronavirus-related Racism and Xenophobia
With the spread of the coronavirus, anti-Asian discrimination has been spreading on a national level. Regardless of age, location and ethnicity, Asian Americans are experiencing racially-charged harassment and discrimination because of the coronavirus.
KAC is proactively working with neighboring AAPI organizations, including Asian Policy and Planning Council (A3PCON), to address the rise of coronavirus-related racist and xenophobic incidents occurring in our community. Spearheaded by Russell Jeung, Chair and Professor of Asian American Studies at SFSU, and Chinese for Affirmative Action in the Bay Area, we’d like create a statewide database to record incidents of our community members experiencing discrimination and hate due to growing fear and hysteria surrounding the coronavirus.
We are very concerned about these incidents and we will continue to work hard to raise awareness about these incidents and get appropriate action from our civic leaders.

2020 Emerging Leaders Summit on May 21, 2020
If you are a college student or recent graduate whose classes and internships have been disrupted by COVID19, you've almost certainly thought about the uncertain future in regards to what you may do and where you may go.
With social distancing guidelines and lock-down parameters in place, you may need new solutions, insights, and perspectives on how to navigate the COVID19 professional landscape. How can we use this as an opportunity to hone our skills? How can we prepare ourselves to excel and grow from this experience instead of feeling stuck and unproductive?
Even before COVID19, professional development, long-term thinking, and career mapping has always been hard. Join us as we share our insights on the uncertain future.
Discuss how to be engaging in change to promote a growth mindset that helps you adapt. With our Ignite NextGen leaders leading the conversation, this will be a powerful way for all participants to connect and find new allies, friendship, and community.
