Getting Involved
From volunteering to joining our member family, there are a variety of ways to support JACL SF and our mission.
Membership
​Joining as a member shows your commitment to the JACL SF chapter and our civil rights values. It is also a great way to keep informed on our activities, as membership includes print and digital subscription to our chapter’s quarterly newsletter.
Member benefits extend to JACL’s national level, including a FREE digital subscription to the Pacific Citizen, JACL’s national newspaper.
Donating
Your donation will go to support our chapter's work on fighting anti-Asian hate, protecting/preserving San Francisco Japantown, and advocating for the civil rights of all.​
Volunteering
Join us to support our chapter mission. Volunteer at a one-time event, host a career workshop, mentor young, emerging leaders, and/or join the board! Let us know how you would like to help. We focus on diversity, equity, and inclusion in everything we do.​
