Pan-Asian Staff Association

• Promote the general well-being of Asian/Pacific Islander staff at UCSD
• Inform members of resources for career and personal development
• Develop and present informative workshops of particular interest to Asians regarding locally and globally relevant topics
• Cultivate cultural competency
• Establish and strengthen professional and social relationships among Asian staff members, allies, and the campus community

PASA strongly believes in providing educational and social activities as a means of promoting professional and personal relationships within the university and in fostering a conducive environment for learning and dialogue.

Although PASA is an organization that was formed for the benefit of UCSD staff employees, we work (and play) with UC faculty, students, and members of surrounding communities.

We invite those who share our vision to join us in our continuing efforts to attain the highest level of professional and personal achievement possible for our communities. 

Interested in connecting with other UC San Diego staff members? Want to get priority access to fun events? Looking for ways to give back to the Asian and Pacific Islander American (APIA) community on campus?  

The Pan-Asian Staff Association was established in the 1980s as a way to promote the general well-being of the APIA staff community at UC San Diego. Our focus continues to be on community building, staff development, and advocacy. By becoming a member, you will not only help keep its mission, vision, and purpose alive, you will also get access to a variety of perks!

Official PASA Sustaining Membership includes, but is not limited to:

• Priority registration to PASA-hosted activities and lectures
• Opportunities to participate in career and personal development workshops
• Invitations to members-only events
• Access to mentorship, community service, and networking opportunities  

Your membership of $20 or more helps PASA not only support the APIA staff community, but it also goes toward supporting student-focused initiatives during Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month.
