Goals of Our Study:
Historically and currently, Pasifika (Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander) people living in the United States have been the subjects of health, economic, and social inequities as a result of structural racism and settler colonialism. In more recent times, Pasifika have been disproportionately affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. In collaboration with the Pacific Islander Community Association of WA, this study aims to specifically examine employment among Pasifika living in the 10 US states with the largest Pasifika populations during the COVID-19 pandemic.
