This month, we proudly celebrated Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) Heritage Month across the American Heart Association ❤️
Throughout May, our AAPI+ Heart Alliance ERG helped spotlight the rich cultures, histories, and contributions of AAPI+ communities through storytelling, cultural education, and meaningful conversations.
One highlight was a special conversation with award-winning filmmaker Richa Rudola, whose work explores identity, motherhood, mental health, and advocacy. Her storytelling sparked thoughtful dialogue about topics such as benefits, like Paid Family Medical Leave, and the importance of supporting families and communities.
A huge thank you to our AAPI+ Heart Alliance ERG for leading this celebration and creating spaces for connection, learning, and representation. We’re grateful for the impact they continue to make across our organization.
