Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Qualitatively we anticipate that our workshops and cabarets will further empower Asian Pacific Islander American women to clapback at microaggressions using the tools and resources provided (humor, comedy, performance, history, movement, body language, etc). Quantitatively our goal is to engage 10-15 APIA women per workshop and have 50-75 in the audience per cabaret performance. After workshops we will issue verbal and written surveys for participants. After the cabarets we will conduct informal surveys and even have conversations with audience members to understand how the work has impacted them. We will use feedback gathered each month to improve the series.
