Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month

Celebrated annually in May, ANHPI month is a time to honor and recognize the cultural heritage, contributions, and achievements of our Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander community. Here in Washington, we have people from 42 different nations across Asia and the Pacific Islands that now call our state home.
