AAPI Nexus: Health 3:1 (2005)

The six articles in these two issues focusing on health cover the three categories adopted by AAPI Nexus to create forums for voices from multiple areas of expertise, and to disseminate data, information, and knowledge to our diverse audience. “Practitioner’s Essays” are opinion-based articles that give the writers an opportunity to broadly discuss the challenges and accomplishments facing AAPIs, and to lay out an agenda for action. Takeuchi and Hong; and Liou and Hirota contribute the two Practitioner’s Essays for this and the other upcoming issue. In honoring the journal’s overall mission to bridge the world of research and practice, we seek applied social science and policy-oriented research articles, such as those by Ponce and Gatchell; and by H. Chen et al. Finally, we include two articles (C. Chen et al.; and Tao et al.) in the “Almanac Section,” which presents new data or data not readily accessible to our audience and methodologies relevant to studying our community. Although the three categories can and do overlap, each of them has a distinct orientation, which collectively pursues AAPI Nexus’s mission.
