I began my community involvement by volunteering at the Chandler Public Library, where I served for 5 years and later became the President of the Volunteer Advisory Council. During this time, I received a Presidential Volunteer Service Award from The President of the US for my contributions to Arizona.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>Subsequently, I expanded my engagement with the City of Chandler, participating in planning committees such as the first-ever Asian Village planning committee and the Asian American Community Conference planning committee. My journey led me to join the Chandler Police Department as a volunteer for the operation support bureau, where I developed a deep passion and respect for law enforcement. After five years, I transitioned to the Citizens Police Academy Alumni Committee of Chandler (CPAAC), currently serving on the executive board. In the same year, I was appointed by the Mayor to the Citizens&#8217; Panel of Review for police complaints and use of force, where I proudly serve the residents of Chandler currently.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>Professionally, I am the COO of the Chandler-Gilbert Asian Festival, a current business and education committee member for the Gilbert Chamber of Commerce, and the CEO of 153AZ a model car company where I make model police cars for various different agencies and officers. Additionally, I currently work as a civilian police aide for a local police department after leaving the city of Chandler&#8217;s parks and rec division where I helped all across the city in various locations including the Tumbleweed Rec Center, Community Center and Snedigar Sportsplex as well as the city&#8217;s special events division.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>In my time serving this great city in numerous aspects I have grown a deep passion and love for the city and its people. I am running for Chandler city council to continue support for public safety to keep you and your families safe, Developing Chandler&#8217;s Workforce to ensure the longevity of our city, Working hard to ensure all Chandler residents can attain their American dream and leading the charge for Chandler&#8217;s future to promote retention of our next generation to come back this city and build their family. I hope to earn your support and vote so we can continue to grow Chandler together.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>About Me Hi, I&#8217;m Joseph, My name is Joseph Yang, I&#8217;m a community servant leader, small business owner, entrepreneur, and Pickleball enthusiast.
