Why join APIC?

Membership in APIC offers a range of advantages, beginning with the support and advocacy provided by a dedicated caucus that promotes Asian American Pacific Islanders (AAPI) within the American Public Health Association. APHA is recognized as the largest and oldest public health organization in the United States, making your involvement impactful.

As a member of this broad-based community, you contribute to the collective voice of AAPI within APHA, helping to shape and influence federal public health policies.

  1. Present your research at the annual APHA scientific conference (with an average of 10,000 attendees/year )—-the largest gathering of public health professionals nationwide.
  2. Serve as a peer reviewer for abstracts submitted to the APHA conference each year.
  3. Share and promote your AAPI-related events, news, and resources to fellow APIC members.
  4. Advocate for public health policies that impact the AAPI community.
  5. Network, collaborate, and partner with like-minded AAPI professionals.
