In response to community feedback, CAUSE has adapted the CAUSE Leadership Institute into a monthly conversation series about current issues called the CAUSE Power Lunch Series: Strategies with API Community Leaders. Invited guests include CAUSE alumni, board members, and community partners.
Our first session explored redistricting and its impact on Asian American voters in California. We were delighted to have Professor Natalie Masuoka as our guest speaker, author of the UCLA Asian American Studies Center (AASC) Policy Initiative Report: Special Election November 2025: Redistricting and the Consequences for Asian American Voters.
Thank you to the API community members who joined our first Power Lunch session! This included over 20 guests, representing nonprofits, government offices, higher education institutions, and corporations.
CAUSE civic leadership programs for professionals are made possible through the support of East West Bank.
