Join us for the 54th JACL National Convention in Philadelphia from July 10 to 14, 2024! This year’s theme is
LIFT: Looking Into the Future Together.
With
OCA-National,
APIAVote, and more partners, we come together in Philadelphia for joint programming and networking to uplift the voices of the AAPI community. On Saturday, July 13, attendees are invited to a special election-year
APIAVote Presidential Town Hall, a forum for AAPIs to push for our issues in political campaigns and the media.
2024 is also an election year for the JACL National Board, so National Council will make important decisions on our future leadership and platform for change.
2024 marks just five years until JACL’s 100-year anniversary in 2029! We will continue to plan for our future and our programming and Sayonara Gala will feature our
Centennial Education Fund campaign which concludes at this year’s end.
See you in Philly for this collaborative and futuristic convention,
LIFT: Looking Into the Future Together!
