Background
The Asian Pacific State Employees Association (APSEA) was founded in 1975. The main goals and objectives of APSEA were to assist APSEA members during their employment as employees for the State of California and to provide support for various community service groups. In 1986, APSEA was renamed Asian Pacific State Employees Association (APSEA), to include Pacific Islanders in state government.
APSEA currently has chapters in Sacramento, Central Valley, Southern California, and the San Francisco Bay Area. APSEA had testified before legislative committees and State Personnel Board hearings on issues relating to APSEA members.
