Our logo features the koi fish, symbolizing perseverance, determination, and the courage to overcome obstacles. In Asian culture, koi fish are revered for their ability to swim upstream against the current—a powerful metaphor for resilience and tenacity. Just as the koi fish perseveres and proves successful, we aim to empower AAPI prosthetic and orthotic professionals to navigate challenges and thrive in their careers.

Going Upstream for Change - At APAAPO, we believe in the public health concept of going upstream to address systemic issues affecting the AAPI community. Rather than solely addressing problems downstream, we're committed to tackling root causes and advocating for meaningful change at every level.
