Who we are

The Asian American High School Conference (AsAm HSC) is a free, annual conference hosted at the University of Michigan Ann Arbor campus. This conference is designed to guide high schoolers in exploring their identity and provide insight into college life. University of Michigan students serve as small group leaders, workshop facilitators, and panelists to guide high school attendees. The purpose of this conference is to empower A/PIA youth and ease their transition into college and other post-high school plans. The goal is for high schoolers to return to their high schools after the conference with knowledge of resources and current issues in the A/PIA community.
