NCI Alumni Reflection: Beth Uno
NCI class of 2010, intern at Pacific Citizen, UCLA Class of 2011
NCI was a very memorable and rewarding experience. While working at Pacific Citizen, I was exposed to issues affecting all Asian Americans and had the amazing opportunity to attend the 2010 National JACL Convention in Chicago. I also enjoyed learning about various Japanese American community organizations. Through NCI, I became motivated to continue to be active in the Japanese American community because NCI showed me that it is the responsbility of my generation to continue to lead the community, address issues, and solve problems affecting the Japanese American community. Finally, I met some of now closest friends through NCI and am very grateful for the experience. In my future I hope to continue to be involved with the Japanese and Asian American communities through volunteer work.
