Our Mission
The mission of AAGEN is to promote, expand and support Asian Pacific American leadership in the Federal, State and Local governments.
Our Profile
The Asian American Government Executives Network (AAGEN), founded in September 1994, is a 501(c)3 non-profit, non-partisan organization of the highest ranking Asian Pacific American career and appointed executives, foreign service officers, legislative and judiciary members, and military officers in the Federal, state, and local governments.
Our History
In early 1994, several Federal Asian American senior executives met informally to become better acquainted, to explore the possibilities of setting a more structured network, and to find ways to identify other executives. It was agreed that through a network, we would be able to establish a high level voice and representation for ourselves and other Asian Americans in Federal service, to help each other, and to maintain visibility that other similar organizations have achieved for their respective interests. In the ensuing months, the group grew quickly with executives representing more than 20 Federal agencies, and the network was formed.
