Asian Americans Advancing Justice-Los Angeles (Advancing Justice-LA) is now officially named Asian Americans Advancing Justice Southern California (AJSOCAL).
With offices in Los Angeles and Orange Counties, we made this change to reflect our unified presence and service in both areas, and we will continue to provide help where possible for organizations and individuals from the region and beyond.
“As part of the Advancing Justice affiliation, we have always served both Orange and Los Angeles counties, so this change simply better represents us,” said Connie Chung Joe, CEO of AJSOCAL. “Our help and advocacy for Asian Americans have not changed. We continue to strive for equity and justice.”
AJSOCAL remains an active part of the network of sister organizations that comprise the national affiliation named Asian Americans Advancing Justice. We are separate but equal, joined by the same mission.
Our sister organizations are five independently operated and funded nonprofits:
- In Southern California: Asian Americans Advancing Justice Southern California (AJSOCAL);
- In San Francisco: Asian Americans Advancing Justice – Asian Law Caucus (Advancing Justice – ALC);
- In DC: Asian Americans Advancing Justice – Asian American Justice Center (Advancing Justice | AAJC);
- In Chicago: Asian Americans Advancing Justice – Chicago (Advancing Justice | Chicago);
- In Atlanta: Asian Americans Advancing Justice – Atlanta (Advancing Justice – Atlanta)
