Welcome

The Asian American Bar Association of Kansas City (“AABAKC”) was started in 2004, as a gathering of local attorneys in the Kansas City area. It quickly grew into a non-profit association of Asian Pacific American attorneys, judges, law professors, law students and those interested in Asian American legal issues. AABAKC is an affiliate of the National Asian Pacific American Bar Association (NAPABA), which has been at the forefront of national and local activities in the areas of civil rights reform, combating anti-immigrant backlash and hate crimes, increasing the diversity of the federal and state judiciaries, and professional development since 1988. Our mission is to promote justice, equality and opportunity for Asian Americans, and to foster professional development, legal scholarship, advocacy and community involvements in the metropolitan Kansas City area.
