Active Asian American Community (AAAC)

Welcome to Active Asian American Communities! (PLEASE READ 👇)
Our goal is to connect Asian-Americans and allies in a safe, respectful, supportive, and fun environment across the SF Bay Area.

Community Guidelines*:*

• Be Respectful & Inclusive – Treat all members with kindness. Discrimination, stereotyping, or disrespectful behavior is not tolerated.
• Zero Tolerance for Harassment – No unwanted physical contact, sexual comments or advances, stalking, intimidation, or persistent unwanted flirting. Respect personal boundaries and consent.
• Maintain a Safe Environment – Especially for women and new members. Respect personal space, avoid pressuring others, and be mindful of your impact.
• Respect Organizers – Our volunteers create events to ensure positive experiences. Follow event guidelines and organizer decisions.
• Engage Positively & Supportively – Celebrate members’ achievements, support each other, and collaborate without competition. We also don’t compete with other Meetup groups.

✨We are LGBTQ+ friendly✨
If you’re a member of the LGBTQ+ community and would like to be called a pronoun that is different from your biological pronoun, please let us know and everyone is expected to respect that, despite your personal belief in the topic.

Coming to an Event Without RSVP’ing:
Please RSVP if you are planning to come to an event, out of respect for the event organizer. For some events, the event organizer has to make a reservation for the group- for these events you must RSVP by the deadline provided by the event organizer. Otherwise, you will be immediately removed from the group. For events where the event organizer does not have to create a reservation, you must RSVP up to an hour before the event starts. If you “crash” an event (ie. come without RSVP’ing) 3x, you will be removed from the group.

Reporting Concerns:
If you feel unsafe or experience guideline violations, contact an organizer privately via Meetup or email safety.aaac@gmail.com. All reports are handled confidentially.

Consequences:
Violations may result in warnings, removal from events, or removal from the group depending on severity.

Let’s make this a vibrant, safe space for everyone to connect, grow, and thrive!
