While “AAPI” populations are diverse and expansive in language, regions, and cultural practices, organizations continue to combine these different groups together, which has further contributed to health disparities. In this webinar, we will discuss the difficulties in grouping “AAPI” populations in public health outreach and discuss why data disaggregation is important to reducing health inequalities. We will also discuss what Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders have faced during COVID-19, and their continued struggle with other lung health issues, such as tobacco use and lung cancer.

FLAVORS HOOK KIDS: Did you know that there are more than 15,000 flavors used in tobacco products to hook the next generation on nicotine?
Every penny you contribute stays right here in Hawai‘i.
The tobacco industry spends more than $25 million each year in Hawai‘i marketing their products to kids while sugary drink manufacturers pay fitness bloggers and researchers to promote diets that include soda. These industries care about one thing and one thing only: profit. That’s where we come in. We, and our coalitions, work every day to stop them in their tracks. We shine a light on their bad acts and we fight for policies that promote health for all Hawai’i residents and visitors. Your gift allows us to do more… and it is tax-deductible!
