This October, we honor the rich heritage and contributions of Filipino Americans in recognition of Filipino American History Month!

As the second-largest Asian American group in the country and the third-largest ethnic group in California, Filipino Americans have played a critical part in the history and culture of both the United States and California.

This month, as we celebrate Filipino heritage, let’s recognize and appreciate the cultural wealth and distinctiveness that the Filipino community brings to our collective heritage.
