Field Museum Connections: AANHPI Stories & the TEAACH Act Workshops

Supported by a three-year grant from the Cyrus Tang Foundation, the Field Museum Connections: AANHPI Stories & the TEAACH Act project seeks to address this gap by partnering with local Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) communities, cultural organizations, and educators to co-create PreK-12 learning experiences and programs that reflect authentic, multifaceted perspectives centering AANHPI communities. We aim to equip Illinois educators to meet the requirements of the TEAACH Act, educate young people, foster greater cultural empathy, and empower community voices in the telling of their own histories.
