Stop the Hate

Through the Stop the Hate program, PACE is raising awareness about anti-Asian hate, supporting victims, and improving cultural understanding between communities and law enforcement.

What is Stop the Hate?

Stop the Hate is a program by the California Department of Social Services (CDSS) that funds over 170 organizations throughout California to provide direct services, prevention services and intervention services for victims of hate. The program began in 2021 to combat the rise in hate against Asian and Pacific Islander Californians in the aftermath of COVID-19.  Today, the program has been expanded to fund organizations combating hate against all groups.

Our Work

PACE’s work as a Stop the Hate grantee consists of community-building, outreach, and prevention and intervention services. Our work centers on sharing critical information on anti-AAPI hate, how victims can respond to and report hate crimes and hate incidents, and strategies for law enforcement to handle incidents of hate and bias in a more culturally sensitive manner.

PACE is proud to be amongst the expanded cohort of 42 organizations who received $24 million of renewed funding over the next two years to carry out this critical work.
