Welcome to Season 5, Episode 21! We're really honored to have today's guest Georgette Bhathena, the Chief Programs Officer at The Asian American Foundation. She's here to talk to us about the 2025 STAATUS Index, AKA (Social Tracking of Asian Americans in the United States). Georgette has extensive work experience in the philanthropy and grant-making sector. Prior to joining TAAF, they worked at Zoom as the Global Philanthropy Pillar Lead for Zoom Cares. And that's not the only place that Georgette has left their impact. Georgette has held various roles at both private and not for profit groups including at Tipping Point Community, the San Francisco Foundation, JPMorgan Chase & Co., and Citibank, just to name a few places. And Georgette helped lead the creation of the 2025 STAATUS Index. Now in its fifth year, the data continues to amaze, and sometimes dishearten us. However, the only way to change things is through education and more of us trying to make things better. We highly recommend that you download and read the 2025 STAATUS Index. You can also support TAAF's work through donations and using their resources.

La mer et l'océan ont depuis toujours accompagné Cécile Delebarre. Professeure de SVT à La Réunion, elle fait partager cette passion à ses élèves en leur proposant de travailler autour d'un projet d'étude et de préservation de l'espace maritime tout au long de l'année. En 2025, elle a obtenu le label « classe TAAF ». Accompagnée de Margot Thibault, biologiste marine spécialisée dans l'étude de la pollution plastique dans l'océan Indien, et avec des enseignants d'autres disciplines, elle fait découvrir les Terres australes et antarctiques françaises aux élèves de 6e. Ces territoires sont autant d'opportunités pour acquérir des connaissances scientifiques, mener des actions concrètes en faveur de la biodiversité marine, faire des expériences sensorielles et travailler l'imaginaire. Un projet qui capte ainsi l'intérêt des élèves et suscite leur engagement d'écocitoyens.Les épisodes de la playlist Extra classe Éduquer à la transition écologique et sociale peuvent vous intéresser.Vous pouvez aussi consulter : Éducation à la transition écologique et sociale, des ressources de formats variés pour vous former et vous accompagner, sur Réseau Canopé.L'année de la Mer 2025 sur éduscol, en lien avec la troisième Conférence des Nations unies sur l'Océan prévue à Nice du 9 au 13 juin 2025.Des ressources pour la classe sur le site gouvernemental des TAAF. La fondation Tara Océan au service de la préservation de l'océan.Extra classe à partager et à écouter sur toutes vos plateformes d'écoute :https://smartlink.ausha.co/extra-classeExtra classe, des podcasts produits par Réseau Canopé.

In 2003, a group of Indian Americans established the Hindu American Foundation (HAF), an organization explicitly modeled on the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), in a bid to address anti-Hindu discrimination in the US. Just as the ADL has long insisted that fighting American antisemitism requires bolstering support for Israel, the HAF committed itself to lobbying for India's Hindu nationalist movement in the name of protecting Hindu Americans' civil rights, an approach that has garnered significant success. The HAF is not the only organization that has drawn inspiration from the ADL. In 2021, the Asian American Foundation (TAAF) was formed in direct partnership with the ADL as a way to address growing anti-Asian racism. While lacking connection to a single ethnonationalist movement, TAAF nevertheless drew on the ADL's and HAF's approaches in positioning anti-Asian racism as a unique problem requiring carceral solutions instead of solidaristic organizing. As such, TAAF debuted with ADL head Jonathan Greenblatt as the only non-Asian person on its board, and Hindu nationalist Sonal Shah as its founding president. The HAF and TAAF's use of the ADL model has thus far helped them achieve significant support and legitimacy. However, as the ADL itself faces an unprecedented crisis of legitimacy in the wake of October 7th, affiliation with it now risks becoming a liability. For instance, following members' criticism over its ties to an increasingly repressive Greenblatt, TAAF removed him from his board this July (while still affirming its “strategic relationship” with the ADL). As dissent continues to grow in Asian and South Asian American communities—with reporters and activists questioning ties of anti-racist groups in the US to injustices abroad—it is not just ties to the ADL but the power of the ADL model of antiracism that stands to come into question. To discuss these developments, Jewish Currents news editor Aparna Gopalan spoke to associate editor Mari Cohen, New Yorker contributing writer E. Tammy Kim, and Savera coalition activist Prachi Patankar about the similarities and differences between the ADL, the HAF, and TAAF; their embrace of a “hate crimes” approach to anti-racism and what it leaves out; their ties to supremacist movements; and their shifting fortunes in the wake of the pressures over the past year.

Welcome to Season 4, Episode 21! It's time for the 2024 STAATUS Index published by The Asian American Foundation (TAAF) with partnership from Leading Asian Americans to Unite for Change (LAAUNCH), AAPI Data, and the Asian American Research Initiative. This annual survey is a social tracking and national assessment of attitudes and stereotypes towards Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders. In this episode, we review the report and provide an overview of it. We also dig into each of the sections and reflect on responses. As always, we highly recommend that you download the STAATUS Index and read it yourself. It's very well written with easily accessible information, so don't be afraid that it's data-rich. In our recurring segment we ask “What's Going On?” as we reflect on the sheer number of Asian Pacific-led TV shows that have been canceled in the last year or so. It's hard to wrap our heads around the fact that the last year has seen cancellations of The Afterparty, Kung Fu, Doogie Kamealoha M.D., NCIS: Hawaiʻi, Young Rock, Quantum Leap, American Born Chinese, The Brothers Sun, Warrior, and Our Flag Means Death. We look at ratings, viewership, and ultimately ask, “What's Going On?” If you like what we do, please share, follow, and like us in your podcast directory of choice or on Instagram @AAHistory101.

Dylan Rodriguez is back to talk about his new piece: "How the Stop Asian Hate Movement Became Entwined with Zionism, Policing, and Counterinsurgency." Launching off the murders of Asian sex workers in Atlanta in 2021, The Asian American Foundation (TAAF) raised over $1 billion in six months. How was the rage over those deaths transformed into liberal, reformist solutions to violence, plus a TAAF board appointment for the ADL's Jonathan Greenblatt?

Welcome to Season 4, Episode 8! Today's conversation is with Amy Chu, a co-founder and former editor of A. Magazine, screenwriter, co-founder of Alpha Girl Comics, and well-known comic book author. Her latest title is Fighting to Belong! Volume 1 (out now, so go get it), which is a graphic novel focused on the history and contributions of Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islanders in America. Published by Third State Books, Fighting to Belong! is co-written with Amy's son, Alexander Chang, and illustrated by Louie Chin. It's a collaborative project with The Asian American Foundation, The Asian American Education Project, and others. The importance of Fighting to Belong! cannot be overstated. Through an engaging story, readers will be entertained, engaged, educated, and empowered. Amy has written a diverse collection of titles that include Poison Ivy, Kiss, Wonder Woman, Red Sonja, Dejah Thoris, and Ant-Man. Two of our favorite works by Amy are the Trot and Cap'n Bill series for teens and Carmilla: The First Vampire graphic novel. Amy is able to weave in diversity and depth to her stories in a way that makes typically underrepresented people (like API) feel seen and heard. In our conversation, we talk about all of these things as well as her journey to comics, the importance of diverse storytelling, the status of Fighting to Belong! Volume 2, what draws her to writing complex characters, and so much more. Whether you like comics, good storytelling, history, or diversity, we highly recommend getting Fighting to Belong! or any of Amy's other work, but especially the Trot and Cap'n Bill series, Carmilla: The First Vampire, and Poison Ivy. You can learn more about Amy through her website and her work with Alpha Girl Comics. She also has signed copies of her work available. You can follow her on Twitter or Instagram as well.  If you like what we do, please share, follow, and like us in your podcast directory of choice or on Instagram @AAHistory101.

Welcome to Season 3, Episode 30. Stop AAPI Hate doesn't just aggregate discrimination and racism. They are a consortium of organizations dedicated to doing research, surveys, and reports to collect data and share the Asian American Pacific Islander experience. In this episode, we talk about and discuss their latest report, Righting Wrongs: How Civil Rights Can Protect Asian Americans & Pacific Islanders Against Racism. They worked with NORC at the University of Chicago to do this work. We also discuss the latest annual  Social Tracking of Asian Americans in the U.S.  Index that is organized by The Asian American Foundation. Now in its third year, the STAATUS Index does a great job tracking trends and feelings of belonging, stereotyping, and discrimination of the AANHPI community. We highly recommended reading the full reports for both (don't worry, they're pretty short and easy to consume), but both have shorter executive summaries. We close the show by sharing what we're watching and talk about Asian American representation in the Titans as well as Grease: Rise of the Pink Ladies.

Thursday, August 3rd, 2023   Norman Chen is the CEO of the Asian American Foundation or TAAF. We discuss racism against Asians and the pursuit of belonging through philanthropy, civic engagement, and education.   Deep misconceptions about Asian Americans persist. Narrative change is key for people to see Asian Americans as really being Americans. Only about 1.5% of schools offer a formal Asian American studies program, although Asian American history and Pacific Islander history is a critical part of American history. TAAF aims to build greater belonging and prosperity for AAPIs everywhere.  Follow Norman on Twitter:  https://twitter.com/normanlschen    Follow Mila on Twitter:  https://twitter.com/milaatmos    Follow Future Hindsight on Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/futurehindsightpod/   Love Future Hindsight?

One of the foremost global leaders on social impact and innovation, Sonal Shah is the founding President of The Asian American Foundation (TAAF). She has also started and led social impact efforts in academia, government, and the private and philanthropic sectors for over twenty-five years. TAAF is a convener, incubator, and funder committed to accelerating opportunity and prosperity for Asia and Pacific Islanders (API) communities. TAAF supports advocates and organizations committed to AAPI causes so that together they can more effectively take action against hate and violence, and build the infrastructure needed to improve API advocacy, power, and representation across American society. Tami Bui and Catt Phan talk to Sonal about how together we all can build community, fight against racism and hate, and create a permanent and irrevocable sense of belonging -- how to turn fear into possibility. We question whether fear is too easy of a reason for hate crimes, how to turn scarcity mindset into abundance, and how we must continue making waves for future generations to feel ripples of progress. ________ CONNECT WITH SONAL Twitter: https://twitter.com/SonalRShah (twitter.com/sonalrshah) TAAF: https://www.taaf.org/ (taaf.org) ________ SUBSCRIBE TO LEAP @leapuncaptalent on https://www.instagram.com/leapuncaptalent/ (Instagram) / https://twitter.com/leapuncaptalent (Twitter) / https://www.linkedin.com/company/leapuncaptalent/ (Linkedin) / https://www.facebook.com/LEAPUncapTalent (Facebook) Learn more about us at https://www.leap.org/ (leap.com) ________ This episode was edited by Catt Phan

TAAF supports advocates and organizations committed to AAPI causes so that together they can more effectively take action against hate and violence, and build the infrastructure needed to improve AAPI advocacy, power, and representation across American society.We talk about the huge spike of anti-hate crimes against the Asian American community the past few years, the main focus areas for TAAF, and how far back the history of Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders goes in the United States.We also talk about our own childhood growing up in Houston as South Asians, how our generation perhaps internalized those feelings of being "the other", and why our own parents may have not had the bandwidth to comprehend racism when they immigrated to this country.Sonal discusses the importance of the Asian American narrative and certain cultural ideas that need to change, her own journey working with Obama and Mayor Pete Buttigieg, what she ultimately wants to be known for, and why she's ready to start a band.www.taaf.org

Eric Toda, Global Head of Social Marketing at Facebook, joins Jerry to share his story of growing up as a 4th generation Japanese American, experiencing racism and stereotypes in the corporate world, and changing the conversation around race for his children. Learn about how his viral ADWeek article came to be and what he's doing to continue the fight against the injustices through LAAUNCH, TAAF, and his current role in the marketing industry.  In this episode: Multi-cultural background and upbringing Back story of the ADWeek article Changing the conversation around race for his children How his experiences and work portfolio played a role in speaking up for injustices Meet Eric, in his own words:Hi, I'm a marketing executive, angel investor, and active advocate for the Asian American community. I've  held previous brand and digital marketing leadership roles at Stitch Fix, Gap Inc, Airbnb, Snapchat, and Nike and my work has been awarded by Cannes Lions, Webbys, Clios, amongst others for combining purpose, creativity, and business results. As an Investor at Hyphen Capital and an independent advisor I have been very grateful to help build disruptive brands like Yumi, Wardrobe, Upaway, Fyllo, amongst many others.The most proud work i've done is for my community. I  proudly sit on the Board of Directors for Reimagine and LAAUNCH (Leading Asian Americans to Unite for Change), the advisory council for TAAF (The Asian American Foundation), the advisory board of directors for the Smithsonian Asian Pacific American Center, and most recently I've been using my voice and platform for the #StopAsianHate movement in the business world to speak up for those that look like me. I launched my advocacy in Adweek earlier this year by writing a piece called: “My People Are Dying In Silence — And I'm Here With A Megaphone” calling out the marketing and advertising industry not just to care, but to act. My work for the community has been featured on NBC News, CBS, FOX, The Wall Street Journal,  and CNBC I was one of the first 100 executives to sign the StandWithAsianAmericans letter in the Wall Street Journal.

"Hate is not a one community issue," says Sonal Shah, president of The Asian American Foundation, a nonprofit launched by business leaders in May, dedicated to addressing discrimination against Asian Americans. In just its first few weeks, TAAF raised $1 billion – and is now grappling with what all start-ups face: how to iterate fast, pivot, lose what's not working, and scale what is working, fast. Sonal, who launched the White House Office of Social Innovation in the Obama Administration, is applying the philosophy of business startups to the new effort, building networks between government, businesses, and other nonprofits to amplify impact.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The United States is home to more than 23 million Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders. AAPI communities are an integral part of our country's history and they continue to make lasting social, cultural, economic and political contributions. However, they often remain underfunded and overlooked. In this episode, SVCF President and CEO Nicole Taylor is joined by The Asian American Foundation (TAAF) Founding President Sonal Shah in a discussion about how this new foundation aims to address the myriad challenges AAPI communities face. Launched in May 2021, TAAF provides funding and resources to build the infrastructure to improve AAPI advocacy, power, and representation. In SVCF's Philanthropy Now podcast series, we explore trends in the world of philanthropy, social impact initiatives in Silicon Valley and beyond, and we look at how SVCF promotes innovative philanthropic solutions to challenging problems.

« Roi par effraction », de François Garde nous plonge en pleine période napoléonienne, sur les traces d’un incroyable destin, celui de l'ascension d’un fils d’aubergiste devenu Maréchal d’Empire et de sa chute. C'est un grand connaisseur des terres lointaines. Ancien administrateur des TAAF, les Terres Australes et Antarctiques françaises, François Garde est certes magistrat et haut fonctionnaire, il est aussi écrivain, et écrivain voyageur. Il a traversé les Kerguelen à pied, il en a fait un récit, Marcher à Kerguelen. Lui qui a été secrétaire général du gouvernement en Nouvelle-Calédonie, il nous a aussi emmenés au cœur du Pacifique, dans son roman Ce qu’il advint du sauvage blanc, Goncourt du 1er roman en 2012. Et le voici qui remonte le cours de l’histoire et qui fait de Murat le héros de son nouveau roman Roi par effraction, paru chez Gallimard. Rediffusion de l'émission du 30 octobre 2019.

George E. Hardy in March 1943, at the age of 17, passed the written and physical examinations for the US Army Aviation Cadet program.  In July 1943 he was called to active duty and sent to Keesler Army Air Field, Biloxi, Mississippi, for basic training.  In September 1943 he was assigned to the 320th College Training Detachment at Tuskegee Institute in Alabama.  His group was scheduled to take college-level courses, at Tuskegee Institute, for a period of five months. This training was cut short in the beginning of December, as his group was transferred to Tuskegee Army Air Field (TAAF) for Aviation Cadet training, as part of Class 44-H.  In September 1944 he graduated as a single-engine pilot and was commissioned a Second Lieutenant in the U.S. Army. In November he was transferred to Walterboro AAF in South Carolina for combat flying training in P-47 aircraft.  This combat flying training was completed in early February 1945, and he was shipped overseas to Italy.  In Italy, he was assigned to the 99th Fighter Squadron, 332nd Fighter Group, where he flew 21 combat missions over Germany in P-51 aircraft.  Those missions were mainly high-altitude escort missions of heavy bombers, but many of the missions also included strafing of ground targets.  He returned from Italy in August 1945 and served at TAAF, until it closed in the summer of 1946.  In July 1946 he was transferred to Lockbourne AAF, Ohio where he was assigned to the 99th Fighter Squadron, flying P-47 aircraft. He was discharged from active duty in November 1946. He attended New York University, School of Engineering, in the Bronx, from September 1947 to May 1948. He was recalled to active duty at Lockbourne Air Force Base (LAFB), Ohio, in June 1948.  He was assigned to the 301st Fighter Squadron, 332nd Fighter Group, flying P-47 aircraft.  In September 1948 he was reassigned as a student in the Airborne Electronics Maintenance Officers Course at Keesler AFB, Mississippi.  The course of study covered radar and long-range navigational equipment on fighter and bomber aircraft.  He graduated in August 1949.  In July 1949 the USAF instituted racial integration and personnel at Lockbourne AFB were reassigned to Air Force bases worldwide.  After graduation in August 1949, he was transferred to the 19th Bomb Group (B-29 Aircraft) on the island of Guam. He was further assigned to the 28th Bomb Squadron as a maintenance officer. His primary job was supervising about 25 airmen in maintenance of electronic equipment on the assigned aircraft.  As a pilot he was also required to fly and was assigned as a copilot on a B-29 aircrew.  The Korean War started 25 June 1950, and the 19th Bomb Group was transferred to Kadena Air Base, Okinawa. He flew 45 combat missions over Korea in the B-29 aircraft. In March 1951 he returned to the states and was assigned to 6th Bomb Wing, at Walker AFB in New Mexico, as a maintenance officer. In June 1951 he was transferred to Lowry AFB, Denver, Colorado for seven months training as an Armament Systems maintenance officer, specifically on B-36 aircraft.  The B-36 aircraft was the largest aircraft in the Air Force, capable of intercontinental bombing missions without refueling.  The armament systems field included not only the electronic navigational and bombing systems but also included the retractable gun turrets and maintenance and loading of the bomb bays.  After the training at Lowry he was transferred back to Walker AFB and in December 1952 he was transferred to Carswell AFB, Ft Worth, Texas. He became part of the 42nd Bomb Wing (B-36 aircraft) and in March 1953 the wing was transferred to Limestone AFB, Maine. He served as a maintenance officer in the 42nd Armament and Electronics Maintenance Squadron (AEMS), until August 1955. In August 1955 he transferred to the United States Air Force Institute of Technology at Wright Patterson AFB, Dayton Ohio.  He entered the undergraduate engineering program and in August 1957, received a Bachelor of Science Degree in Electrical Engineering. In September 1957 he was assigned to the 3rd AEMS, 3rd Bomb Wing (B- 57, Canberra aircraft) at Johnson Air Base, Japan.  He was soon assigned as Maintenance Supervisor, a position he held for almost 3 years. The 3rd Bomb Wing  areas of operations were in Japan, Korea and Okinawa. He became jet-qualified as a pilot and in 1959 he received the aerial rating of Command Pilot. In June 1960 he was promoted to the grade of Major. In November 1960 he transferred to Plattsburgh AFB, New York.  He was assigned as Squadron Commander of the 4108th AEMS, in the 4108th Air Refueling Wing (KC–97aircraft).  In the second half of 1962 his squadron held the 8th Air Force trophy for best AEMS squadron.  In November 1962 he was notified by the Air Force Institute of Technology of his eligibility to apply for a new graduate level systems engineering course specializing in reliability engineering.  He applied for the course and was reassigned, in January 1963, to the USAF Institute of Technology, at Wright Patterson AFB, Dayton Ohio.  In August 1964 he graduated with a Master of Science Degree in Systems Engineering - Reliability. In September 1964 he was assigned to the Electronic Systems Division of Air Force Systems Command, at  Hanscom  AFB, Massachusetts.  In 1965 he received his promotion to the grade of Lt. Col.  In August 1966 he was assigned as Chief of Engineering and Program Manager, for the Development, Installation and Cutover of the 490L Overseas AUTOVON (AUTOmatic VOice Network) Communications Switches, part of the Department of Defense first worldwide direct dial telephone system.  The AUTOVON services within the continental United States was provided by the various telephone companies.  With completion of the overseas switches, the Department of Defense and other government agencies would have almost worldwide, direct dial telephone access.  The initial sites in Europe, Panama and the Pacific were successfully cut over in 1969. At the end of 1969 he received notice of a flying assignment in Vietnam and was provided with refresher flight training as an AC-119K Gunship Aircraft Commander. He was assigned to the 18th Special Operations Squadron at Phan Rang Air Base in Vietnam in April 1970.  Although the squadron headquarters was at Phan Rang Air Base, the aircraft were located at two operating locations, one at Udorn Air Base, in Thailand, and the other at DaNang Air Base in Vietnam.  He was assigned as the Operating Location Commander at Udorn Air Base, Thailand through August 1970.  Missions were flown at night over northern Laos searching for truck traffic from North Vietnam.  In September 1970 he was transferred to DaNang Air Base in Vietnam as Operating Location Commander.  Missions were flown at night over central portions of Laos looking for truck traffic from North Vietnam.  He flew 70 combat missions before returning to the states in April 1971. In May of 1971 he  was assigned to the Inspector General's office at Air Force Systems Command,  Andrews AFB in Maryland.  He served in the IG's office until November 1971 when he retired with the rank of Lieutenant Colonel. His decorations include the Distinguished Flying Cross with Valor, the Air Medal with eleven (11) Oak Leaf Clusters, and the Commendation Medal with one Oak Leaf Cluster.  

Are you free if thoughts just occur to you? Is alienation – as loss of a sense of belonging and subjectivity – a phenomenon of modernity? Is freedom contra-causal and spontaneous? Is it truly in human nature to be free? Are people ‘already’ free? Do you exercise your freedom in the Market? Is all of production voluntary? Is production a form of fulfillment? Is leisure (without work), then, a threat to freedom? Are you overworked and overspent? Are your desires yours? Are we accumulating ‘garbage’? Why don’t consumers go on strike? Are we biologically and socially constrained? Is there a connection between language and freedom? Are you able to put together disjoint concepts out of a context? Does language create possibilities? Can notions of freedom also be propagandized? Do you think of the mountains as Gods? Is freedom (along with the ability to act) essential for survival of the human species? Is it sufficient to think that one is free to be free? Is it necessary (?) to end Capital, as we know it, to save ourselves? Can you conceive of the end of the world? Is the future just like the past? Will we exercise our angelhood? SynTalk thinks about these & more questions using concepts from philosophy (Prof. Akeel Bilgrami, Columbia University, New York), economics (Dr. Arjun Jayadev, Azim Premji University, Bangalore), & linguistics & philosophy (Prof. Nirmalangshu Mukherji, ex-University of Delhi, New Delhi).

This week we learn about a government program that offers matching funds for marketing initiatives. Who’s interested in some federal grant matching funds? Did you know there is a federal program called Trade Adjustment Assistance for Firms (TAAF) that will match up to your $75,000 investment in certain initiatives including; production, information systems, management, quality and, of course, my favorite initiative, marketing. Guests: Tania Bahr-Torline & Amy Graziano, Program Managers at RMTAACRMTAAC Website: www.rmtaac.orgTAAF Website: www.taacenters.orgPhone number: 303-499-8222 Highlights: [3:30] TAAF is designed to help small and medium size manufacturers affected by foreign competition. [4:50] Amy shares the 5 criteria that a manufacturer must fulfill to be eligible for the matching funds. [6:30] Tania talks about how the grant funds can be used my manufacturers. [7:40] There is an approval process for consultants, but for the most part, the manufacturer chooses the consultant they want to work with. [9:30] Learn how much your firm can get. Maximum benefit is $75,000 and usually the funds are spread out over multiple years. [11:00] Listen to two great success stories where manufacturers who were facing stiff foreign competition and, with TAAF funds, were able to turn around their businesses. Interview Questions: Question 1: Tania, let’s start off with you, would you please give us an overview of the larger federal program, TAAF, and then how the regional offices fit in under that? Question 2: Amy, let’s talk specifics, how does a manufacturer qualify for the matching funds? Tania, what can the funds be used for? Question 3: Amy, who does the work? Does RMTAAC have specialists on staff or does the manufacturer go out and find a consultant? Question 4: Tania, I’m sure everyone is wondering, how much assistance can a firm expect to receive?  How often can a manufacturer take advantage of the program? Question 5: I’d love to hear from each of you on this one, what is your favorite success story? Amy, let’s start with you. Tania do you have a favorite success story? Amy's Takeaway: If you're interested in this program, don't rule yourself out. Let TAAF help you determine if you're eligible. Tania's Takeaway: There is another very important component of the program is a business planning phase. A lot of companies feel that planning process is as valuable, maybe more, than the money itself.
