Information

Website:
Company Overview:
The Asian American Journalists Association (AAJA) was founded in 1981 by a few Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) journalists who felt a need to support one another and to encourage more Asian American and Pacific Islanders to pursue journalism at a time when there were few Asian American and Pacific Islander faces in the media.
Mission:
Our mission is three-fold:

1. To encourage Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders to enter the ranks of journalism
2. To work for fair and accurate coverage of Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders
3. To increase the number of Asian American and Pacific Islander journalists and news managers in the industry.
