In order for Asian Pacific American (APA) communities to be aware, mobilize, and vote in future elections, our Voter Outreach, Training, & Education (VOTE) Initiatives provide culturally-aware outreach resources to encourage civic participation. We understand that our communities need to have the knowledge, access, and network to be fully immersed in our democracy.

Throughout the year, CAUSE conducts various VOTE Initiatives to empower the APA community to be active political participants. VOTE Initiatives ensure awareness of the issues and access to the information on how to participate in the political process.
