Program areas at HAF
Community - we train Hindu americans with the knowledge and skills to confidently talk about our teachings with their neighbors, colleagues, and friends. We support families with guides, toolkits and seminars to help them discuss hinduism and Hindu issues with their children.
Advocacy - we provide diversity trainings to law enforcement agencies, workplaces and college campuses. We educate policymakers and channel the concerns of the community on issues such as non-discrimination in the workplace and the right to display religious symbols. We pursue impact litigation and offer seminars and consultation services when the civil rights of Hindu americans are at risk.
Education - we work with state boards of education and publishers to ensure hinduism is portrayed accurately and fairly in public school textbooks. We supply teachers and students with training and supplementary resources to enhance their ability to teach and understand the Hindu tradition.
