In celebration of Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) Heritage Month and Mental Health Awareness Month, the AANHPI ‘Ohana Center of Excellence, funded by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), is hosting our debut virtual event that will introduce our online accessible hub of resources to improve behavioral health among AANHPI communities.
In this free virtual event, we will share our approach to AANHPI behavioral health that centers community health, culturally responsive care, and language accessibility within a framework that is strength-based and provides curated resources to educate, support and empower. You will learn how to improve behavioral health seeking behaviors among AANHPI communities as well as learn why cultural and language responsiveness among behavioral health care providers is so important.
As one of the fastest growing populations in the U.S., Asian Americans, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islanders are diverse groups with a wide array of identities with distinct needs, cultural strengths, and behavioral health needs.
There’s a time for all time zones!
To accommodate all time zones, this event will be broadcasted on two days, two times, same event.
