What We Do

Our Mission

Kids and teens are bullied everyday in schools and online. For centuries, the Asian American and Pacific Islanders (AAPI) community has been pushed to the sidelines, considered to be outsiders who have to continually prove that we belong. AAPI youth are bullied for their appearances, skin color, accents, food and more.

Unfortunately, many AAPI youth who are bullied face unique cultural, religious, and language barriers that can keep them from getting help. Act To Change envisions a world where every child can grow up feeling safe and celebrated in their identities.

Act To Change Celebrates 5th Annual National AAPI Day Against Bullying & Hate

On May 18, 2023, Act To Change rallied over 40 cities, states and jurisdictions, over 100 community organizations and dozens of influencers and leaders against bullying and hate.

We convened with trailblazers, supporters, community members and youth activists at our first-ever Gala event to honor exemplary leaders and uplift youth voice. Together, we gave a strong reminder to our youth: your voices matter, and you belong here.
