    Identifying the Missing Power of Asian Americans in Connecticut (IMPAACT) Conference

    In 2006, UConn’s Asian American Cultural Center (AsACC) began the Identifying the Missing Power of Asian American in Connecticut (IMPAACT) Conference as a catalyst to empower students in their individual journeys of self-development, identity development, and leadership skills.  The conference is an opportunity for student leaders to network with one another at the University of Connecticut to foster collaboration and solidarity.  The conference encompasses issues such as:  mental health awareness, cultural awareness, leadership development, and exploring topics of social justice.

     

    This year’s theme is “Building a Better You”.  Workshops focus on professional career development topics such as:  resume building, developing interview skills, Strengths Quest (a personality inventory) and identifying emotionally intelligent leadership.  The emphasis in this year’s conference is helping students’ transition between academia to the professional world.
