The Pacific Islander Community Association is a nonprofit organization by Pasifika, for Pasifika that seeks to live out the indigenous values of Native Hawaiians and Pacific Islander (NH/PI) communities here in Washington state through community organizing and speaking our truth fiercely to systems of power, while providing social supports and cultural spaces for the community to gather in dignity.
Founded in 2019, our mission is to establish a cultural home, center community power, and advocate to the further the wellness of our Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander (NH/PI) communities physically, culturally, socially, and spiritually.
In order to achieve this mission, our work centers around providing direct community support paired with systems advocacy that is guided by NH/PI community values and priorities.
