Family
Summer 2021 Issue
Embracing, challenging, and navigating family
Your people. Whether that’s all of your brothers, sisters, mothers, fathers, amas and angkongs, lolas and lolos, halmeonis and harabeojis. Or the family you chose to surround yourself with. From navigating challenging relationships to finding an increased sense of community, we’re scratching the surface of what it means to be an Asian American family.
I want to welcome you to our family.

At its core, Mochi is a family.
