The Census APANet (Asian and Pacific American Network) is a volunteer employee organization formed in late 2001. We were chartered and formally recognized by the U.S. Census Bureau in April 2002. Our goals include promoting and effecting the full and equitable participation of Asian Pacific American employees by enhancing their career, professional and personal development and publicizing their contributions, accomplishments and capabilities. Membership is open to all current and former U.S. Census Bureau employees who support the goals of the organization.
