This year APU embraces the theme, "Resilience," as they reflect on and admire the unwavering strength and determination that has carried them through challenges, empowering them to adapt, grow, and thrive in the face of adversity. It is most important now, more than ever, to not only stand in solidarity with one another, but to unleash our powerful capability to protect and support one another: to be resilient. The program will feature speakers, performances, and an opportunity for the community to gather in support of Dr. King’s enduring message.
