Asian Americans Advancing Justice - California (Advancing Justice - CA) is a joint partnership of Asian Americans Advancing Justice - Asian Law Caucus (Advancing Justice-ALC) and Asian Americans Advancing Justice Southern California (AJSOCAL). Our policy team is based in Sacramento and works with the Policy Director at Advancing Justice-ALC and the Policy Strategist at AJSOCAL.
​We work to pass statewide legislation to improve the opportunities and quality of life for underserved communities, such as people of color and immigrants.
We encourage ​Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) communities to have a role in leading policy reform in California.
Asian Americans Advancing Justice - California is a partnership of two non-profit organizations:

Advancing Justice - Asian Law Caucus

AJSOCAL
Asian Americans Advancing Justice – Asian Law Caucus (Advancing Justice – ALC) was founded in 1972 as the nation’s first legal and civil rights Asian American organization. Recognizing that social, economic, political and racial inequalities continue to exist in the United States, Advancing Justice – ALC is committed to the pursuit of equality and justice for all sectors of our society, with a specific focus directed toward addressing the needs of low-income, immigrant and underserved Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders.
Asian Americans Advancing Justice Southern California (AJSOCAL) is the nation’s largest legal and civil rights organization for Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders (NHPI). Through direct services, impact litigation, policy advocacy, leadership development, and capacity building, AJSOCAL focuses on the most vulnerable members of Asian American and NHPI communities while also building a strong voice for civil rights and social justice.
