Stop AAPI Hate is a national nonprofit organization dedicated to tracking, addressing, and preventing anti Asian American and Pacific Islander discrimination, harassment, violence, and hate incidents. The organization was founded in 2020 in response to rising reports of anti Asian racism and has since become one of the leading sources of data, research, advocacy, and community resources related to hate incidents affecting AAPI communities across the United States.
The organization collects reports of discrimination and hate incidents through a public reporting center, helping document experiences that are often underreported through traditional law enforcement systems. This data is used to produce research reports, policy recommendations, public awareness campaigns, and educational resources that help communities, journalists, educators, policymakers, and advocates better understand patterns of bias and discrimination.
Stop AAPI Hate also works to promote civil rights protections, community safety, educational equity, and public awareness. Its research explores issues including racial discrimination, online harassment, hate crimes, public health impacts, misinformation, and barriers to reporting incidents. The organization frequently collaborates with community groups, researchers, and advocacy organizations to support policies that strengthen protections for vulnerable communities.
For activists, educators, researchers, journalists, students, community organizers, and civil rights advocates, Stop AAPI Hate provides valuable tools for understanding anti Asian discrimination and supporting efforts to improve safety, accountability, and equity. Its reports, educational materials, community resources, and advocacy initiatives help inform public conversations about civil rights, inclusion, and social justice.
