As part of the NAAAP National organization, NAAAP Boston is the largest and fastest growing Asian American professional organization in Greater Boston. Through its nine committees, members can participate in many activities that bring together other Asian American professionals in the community.
Our history goes back to New York when the first chapter was founded in 1982. Boston founded its chapter in 1986. There are 27 active Chapters and Associate Chapters across the country with a growing membership of over 3000. Currently, NAAAP Boston is one of the largest chapters, with over 350 members. With an active Asian American community, NAAAP Boston is present at many events across the city.
