Join us as we chat about Mental Health in the Asian American community. All proceeds will benefit Tangible Movement Non-profit.

About this Event

We'll be discussing mental health in the Asian American community and the stigma behind it.

The Facts:

Cultural factors, such as language, age, gender, and others, can influence the mental health of Asians, particularly immigrants

Traditional (adhering to native values) Asians place great value on the family as a unit. Each individual has a clearly defined role and position in the family hierarchy and is expected to function within that role, submitting to the larger needs of the family

Social stigma, shame, and saving face often prevent Asians from seeking behavioral health care
