Hiking Club
If you're in the LA area, join the Hiking Club for some socially-distanced group hikes! After months of stay-at-home orders, it'll be a nice break to meet up responsibly and enjoy the outdoors with others.

The Antiracist Parenting Group will offer a safe and supportive space for participants to learn about and discuss antiracism from an Asian American parenting lens. We hope all who join will feel encouraged to share about topics of interest, experiences, insights, questions, and/or resources within the group.
