In September 2024, the White House Initiative on Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders (WHIAANHPI) worked in collaboration with AAPI Data to produce a set of national data on population counts and population estimates on a variety of outcomes ranging from educational attainment and poverty, to home ownership, English proficiency, and access to health insurance.
