CAPAW is hosting the Compassion Circle, a virtual peer mentoring group for Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) women. This community started in 2021 with support from NAAAP-Atlanta’s Chopstix for Charity.

We currently have a national circle and recently added an Atlanta circle. We want to grow in other cities!

The purpose is to create a community of AANHPI women who are interested in:

• Fostering a safe environment to discuss and share issues and challenges faced by anyone who identifies themselves as AANHPI women.
• Sharing common interests to determine programming for 2022 together.
• Creating a network of AANHPI women to support one another.
• Encourage learning about others and embrace personal development opportunities.

Discussion topics are determined by the participants, once interests are shared within the group. This is an opportunity for the participants to shape the program.

Frequency of Meetings: Once a month plus one coffee chat (informal):

THE NATIONAL LEVEL:
