More than Just Strategies: The Lasting Impact of the Hope Against Hate Campaign
This brief is a follow-up to the 2023 publication of Assessing Impact of AAF’s Hope Against Hate Campaign. The goal of these evaluations is to assess the effectiveness of our HAH Campaign and identify ways to enhance our services to better serve the pan-Asian community in New York City. The new brief, which focuses on the program period of January to December 2023, draws on feedback from program participants and Community Companion volunteers of our HAH Campaign, gathered between November 2023 to February 2024. AAF designed survey questions for safety training participants and for volunteers in the Community Companion Program, and collaborated with Pace University to create survey questions for community members who received victim support services. Pace University also conducted six in-depth interviews with these participants. Below are key findings from the surveys and interviews, with complete survey results included in the methodology section at the end of the brief.
