Glen Ridge Pan Asian American Association
The GRPAAA first began to form in the spring and summer of 2021, when a group of Glen Ridge parents came together to build and strengthen the Asian American community in town and in our school district. Our inaugural event was a community picnic that fall with live music, games, and a delicious variety of pan-Asian food, and families spent a beautiful afternoon mingling with old friends and meeting new ones. Our mission is to build allyship within our town and schools, and to work toward inclusion and equity for all.
