Our mission is empowering AAPI community wellbeing through education, advocacy, research & services

Suicide is the leading cause of death in young Asian Americans. 

Low rates of mental health treatment and high rates of depression and anxiety made worse by the COVID19 pandemic result in huge challenges addressing mental health issues in the Asian American community. 

We're starting in Westchester County, New York, where the Asian American population is growing rapidly. According to the 2020 Census data, there has been a 32% growth in the last 10 years, compared with <6% in the entire county. Our goal is to provide this community the resources to address mental health challenges. 

 

WHAT WE DO

  • SPEAK UP

    EDUCATION & AWARENESS

    We bring mental health into traditionally non-mental health spaces through trainings, community events, and speaking engagements.

  • SPEAK OUT

    RESEARCH & ADVOCACY

    We make sure Asian Americans are well represented when it comes to mental health research and policy.

  • SPEAK NOW

    SERVICES

    For Asian Americans, cultural and linguistic therapeutic matching can be essential for good care. We try to help you with that.
