The funding is also to help the community negatively impacted by the pandemic. According to the governor, there will be a focus on community programs and providers that bring services and supportive programs directly to New York's Asian American communities.
"The COVID-19 pandemic has had a devastating effect on so many vulnerable and marginalized communities across New York State," Governor Hochul said. "The Asian American community was especially hard hit, not only by the virus but by an increase in hate and violent crimes. With this $10 million in funding, we are sending a strong message that hate has no home here, and we will continue to stand shoulder to shoulder with our sisters and brothers in the Asian American community. My administration is laser-focused on continuing to help communities that have for too long been forgotten, not only as we recover from this pandemic, but for years to come."
The governor's office says this will be the largest investment in the Asian American community in New York State history.
