API Communities Parenting with Nonviolence
Community safety rests on a foundation of safe homes and families, but many barriers inhibit Asian and Pacific Islander (API) families from addressing and preventing violence within the home. This project aims to shift community norms toward widespread adoption of the philosophy and practices of “parenting with nonviolence” in diverse API cultural communities across Los Angeles County, contributing to reduced prevalence of trauma and adverse childhood experiences.

Rooted Leadership: Asian/PI Youth Preventing Violence
The "Rooted Leadership" program addresses the root causes of violence through building solidarity and empowerment for Asian and Pacific Islander (Asian/PI) and other marginalized youth, equipping them for grassroots-level action for social change. The program empowers youth to lead challenging conversations, becoming peer advocates and change agents in their communities. CPAF works alongside youth to promote social norms that protect against violence, to identify and engage adult allies, and to develop safe and healthy relationship skills.
