About
NCCAAR.
The National Coalition of Canadians Against Anti-Asian Racism (NCCAAR) is a not-for-profit entity that advances public education on anti-Asian racism and promotes racial equality. It does so through research, knowledge mobilization, education and training, media engagement, and convening events, activities and educational programs.
