Who we are
The Long Beach Filipinx Action Network (LBFAN) is a coalition of Filipino community leaders and nonprofit Filipino community-based organizations committed to serving the Filipino community in Long Beach.
LBFAN was founded in 2024 to unify and amplify the voices of Filipino residents, actively working to promote cultural empowerment, advocacy, and equitable access to resources. It plays an integral role in preserving Filipino American history, celebrating heritage and culture, advancing community empowerment, and ensuring cultural representation in civic engagement efforts. By collaborating with local institutions and small Filipino-owned businesses, LBFAN fosters meaningful connections within the community and creates inclusive spaces where the Filipino community can access information on public services, social justice, and civic participation.
