Asian American Journalists Association

The Asian American Journalists Association (AAJA) was founded in 1981 by several Asian American journalists who felt a need to support greater participation by Asian Americans in the news media.

Its goals are:

• To encourage Asian Pacific Americans to enter the ranks of journalism
• To work for fair and accurate coverage of Asian Pacific Americans
• To increase the number of Asian Pacific American journalists and news managers in the industry.

AAJA is a nonprofit organization. It has 19 chapters in the United States and Asia, with over 1,900 members.
