TeachAAPI parent liaisons work hand-in-hand with our Board to evangelize and promote our programs and events in their respective schools and communities. Another way to get involved is to volunteer to help at one of our community or fundraising events. Please visit the “Attend or Volunteer” section of our website to find out about upcoming events.
