Anyone interested in speaking or doing a reading should email the Berkeley Heights Diversity Council at bhdiversity@gmail.com.
During AANHPI Heritage Month, we proudly celebrate Asian Americans, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islanders in the United States and in our own Berkeley Heights community and pay tribute to the generations who have enriched and strengthened our nation. We stand with the AANHPI community and are grateful for their talent, contributions, and innovation across our community – and country.
