The People’s Vision for Chinatown was developed through deep engagement with a diverse community. We believe that it is the people in a community who have the most complete understanding of their own lives and needs. To implement the People’s Vision for Chinatown, Chinatown Action Group and Chinatown Concern Group will identify resources and develop specific policy proposals, projects, and campaigns for change – but above all, we will continue to engage with each other as a community and build our collective capacity for problem-solving and leadership.

We hope that the People’s Vision for Chinatown can serve as a banner for collaboration, not only for the Chinatown community, but also for our allies across the city and all levels of government. We invite you to join us in action. Together we can build a city where equity and democracy flourish.
