ABOUT US
Asian American Organizing Project (AAOP) was established from a community grassroots organizing movement. Beginning 2016, Asian American Organizing Project (AAOP) is a nonpartisan, nonprofit organization founded to empower young Asian Minnesotans prioritizing LGBTQ+ and women/femme identified to create systems change for an equitable, conscious, and just society. Through a gender justice and critical cultural lens, AAOP addresses issues impacting our young Asian Minnesotan communities through youth participatory action research, grassroots organizing and canvassing, and narrative shift to co-create community change.
Our Mission

Our Vision
Young Asian Minnesotans (14 – 35 years old) will lead long-term racial, economic, and gender justice through reflective leadership, co-creating community change, and amplifying narratives.
