The Eureka Chinatown Project (ECP) is a collaboration of community members and Humboldt Asians & Pacific Islanders in Solidarity (HAPI). We celebrate the history and culture of the historic Chinese community in Humboldt while raising awareness of the local Chinese expulsion events and the federal and state exclusionary acts that shaped our society today. By educating our community, we hope to heal and move towards a more inclusive and just future.
