Each year, USC's API Social Work Caucus hosts the Paul Chikahisa Memorial Lectureship to honor social worker Paul Chikahisa, a respected community advocate. The lectureship is established by his wife and USC alumna, Frances Chikahisa, and supported by friends, family, and community members. Since its establishment in 2010, the Chikahisa Memorial Lectureship has featured a lecturer who embodies Paul’s commitment to social work and community empowerment.
