California steps up efforts to combat anti-Asian crimes, as it commits $166.5 million dollars in new funding over three years.

Watch more on iWantTFC As Los Angeles County observes LA vs Hate Week, California is welcoming $166.5 million over three years in newly announced state funding to combat anti-Asian incidents and crimes.

$110 million of the funding will go to groups that directly serve impacted communities, with the Department of Social Services setting the criteria. Some of the funds will go towards more data collecting, school programs, and a statewide hotline. "It was at this time this past year, after hearing all of these stories, that the commission and API legislative caucus came together to really join forces and develop this proposal to make sure that our community has access and resources beyond what are partners on the ground are able to provide," Serena Kirk of the Commission on Asian & Pacific Islander American Affairs said.
