Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month is observed annually on May 1st - May 31st in the United States.

Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month is a dedicated occasion for the Office of Intercultural Development to honor, acknowledge, and bring attention to the numerous contributions, accomplishments, and tenacity of Asian-identifying individuals throughout history. With the participation of significant events, conversations, and activities this month, we hope to promote a better awareness of Asian American and Pacific Islander history, culture, and the continuous fight for social justice. We hope to encourage inclusivity, respect, and a shared commitment to building a more diverse and equitable community via celebration and education.
