ASIAN OUTREACH
JOSHUA AN
The Asian Community Outreach Liaison provides outreach to Austin’s diverse Asian community - a community which has grown in recent years to include over 80,000 Vietnamese, Korean, Cambodian, Filipino, Chinese, Indian and more!
Challenges in the Asian community include overcoming the ingrained cultural reluctance in many Asian nations to interact with police, and, although great strides have been made and many significant events have brought the various Asian groups together with officers in a non-threatening environment, there is still a lot to be done!
