APALSA supports the professional, academic, and personal development of our members while promoting Asian and Pacific American interests in the legal sphere. Through programming and engagement with the broader legal community, we foster dialogue on critical contemporary legal issues and prepare our members for well-rounded, successful careers. Our keystone event, the annual APALSA Conference (co-hosted with Penn Carey Law's Asian Law Review), brings together students and speakers from across the country to discuss legal issues affecting Asian and Pacific Americans. APALSA is committed to advancing diversity in broad and vibrant ways, including coalition-building and allyship across marginalized and historically underrepresented communities.
