Big congratulations to our small business apprentices who just completed our Small Business Online Presence Program! The past few months they gained valuable workplace skills and helped Asian American small business owners throughout NYC grow their business online, making sure they get 5 star reviews and customers are able to find them on maps online. Grateful to Korean Community Services of Metropolitan New York and KAFSC (Korean American Family Service Center) for partnering with us on this crucial work, as well as to ImpactFull, Inc. who made this possible. Let’s shop local and show some love to our community!

As our national executive search to identify AAF's next executive director continues, Deputy Directors Joo Han and Andrew Sta. Ana will step in as interim co-executive directors. They will provide continued stability and expertise as the organization transitions to its next phase of leadership and continues Executive Director Jo-Ann Yoo's legacy of service to not only Asian New Yorkers but also New Yorkers of color everywhere. We are excited for AAF’s next chapter and thank you for your continued support.

We're excited to work with University Settlement and many other partners these next few years in fostering safe cultural spaces and promoting resilience in our communities!

In 2011, Jo-Ann Yoo joined AAF and was tasked with the challenge of steadying our organization during a difficult time. Back then, we were a tiny nonprofit with a small budget and even smaller staff. But Jo-Ann saw in AAF the potential to be a voice for Asian New Yorkers who didn’t have a seat at the table and to be a champion of our communities’ diverse and growing needs. Thirteen years later, Jo-Ann’s visionary leadership has forged connections, built alliances, and transformed AAF into an organization that serves the 2.1 million Asian Americans who call New York home. We would not be the organization we are today without her. Last Friday we held a very special farewell party for Jo-Ann, who will be stepping down from her role as Executive Director at the end of this month. There were laughter, tears, and overwhelming gratitude and love for Jo-Ann—a dynamic leader, fierce advocate, compassionate mentor, and beloved friend. Wherever she goes next, we know she’ll continue to be a force of nature, and a force for good. Thank you, Jo-Ann! We will miss you! ❤️❤️❤️

This past weekend, HR&A Advisors joined the Asian American Federation (AAF) and MALIKAH for a community cleanup in Astoria! Together, we picked up trash, cleaned streets, and supported the neighborhood’s vibrant small business community. HR&A sponsored cleaning supplies and a post-cleanup lunch, making it a great opportunity to connect with local organizers and connect with the Astoria community. Thank you to everyone who joined us! #CommunityEngagement #AstoriaNYC #SmallBusinessCommunity #HRAAdvisors
