"We are Asian Pacific Student Programs, a community of Asian American, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander students, staff, interns and peer mentors dedicated to preserving and promoting the rich cultural fabric of diversity at UCR. When we face challenges, when we celebrate, we do so together. We build programs, events and social activities around three guiding principles: leadership, consciousness and community. We foster open and educational dialogue that respects and embraces our unique histories and cultural identities. We encourage the academic and professional excellence of all UCR students by providing a peer-mentoring program, internship opportunities through our alumni network, and a safe, welcoming place where anyone can study or just hang out. Through involvement at APSP, students become leaders and leaders become decision makers, shaping their path at UCR and beyond."
