Pacific Islanders remain among the most underserved and underrepresented communities in California’s education, workforce, and civic systems yet are too often rendered invisible in the data and policies that shape opportunity.

Pacific Islanders for Progress (PIP) is a statewide grassroots advocacy coalition working to change that. We bring together community leaders, educators, researchers, and advocates to advance accountability, strengthen public education systems, and ensure Pacific Islander communities are fully supported to pursue postsecondary education and pathways that lead to their flourishing.
