The Vincent Chin Institute was founded with the goal of uniting Asian Pacific American (APA) organizers to fight anti-Asian hate. Their mission is:
- To mobilize a generation of known leaders who are no longer building their own careers, organizations or reputations but who wish to use their expertise where they can be most effective in countering this current wave of anti-China-based anti-Asian hate.
- To bring the skills of this established, veteran APA organizers to communities where there is NO or very LIMITED Asian American advocacy infrastructure.
- To use this network to bridge both organizing and narrative connectivity between multiple sectors.
