#StopAsianHate — Anti-Racism Resources For All

By recoup

Here at Recoup we stand against racism and discrimination of all kinds.  We shared this statement on social media and we have assembled a list of resources below to empower our community to be a part of the solution.

 

Whether these issues impact you or the people you care about directly, we believe that we each have a responsibility to stand up against hate. Recent violence against Asian-Americans has prompted us to share the resources below, not only to help be a part of a solution, but to share our voice and our platform for good. Over the next few weeks we will also be reviving the small business spotlight on our @recoupwellness Instagram we started at the outbreak of Covid-19 which we have used to spotlight Small Businesses and Black-Owned Business. This time we will turn the spotlight to Asian-owned businesses.

We will continue to update and share resources.  Here are few different ways that you can have an impact. Feel free to reach out if there is anything we can do to support you or if you recommend additional resources to share.
