Celebrating Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander Heritage Month
May is Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) Heritage Month, a time to celebrate and pay tribute to the contributions and leadership of AANHPI people, which has been a powerful catalyst for change at the Sierra Club and other progressive organizations. AANHPI changemakers are leaders in environmental and climate justice movements, working to build a world where everyone has access to clean air, clean water, a stable climate, and healthy communities.
