About Us

Vision


We exist to build student leaders and amplify youth voices for AAPI students and allies.

Mission


We accomplish our vision by fostering a safe space to navigate intersectional identities and empowering students to become active world-class members in their global community, which further develops an inclusive and equitable learning environment.

Our Story

Asian Student Alliance was created in response to the Atlanta spa shootings that occurred on March 16, 2021, and took the lives of 8 people, 6 of whom were Asian women.  This sparked a group of educators to come together to create a safe space for Asian American educators and students. 

Through the collaboration of students and educators, Asian Student Alliance was founded. We held our inaugural Student Leadership Conference in July 2021. 

Our Initiatives

Asian Student Alliance provides students with opportunities to develop their leadership skills through internships, workshops, and events. We collaborate with our community to create change and increase awareness and knowledge of Asian American and Pacific Islander perspectives and stories across Georgia.
