MAY: CELEBRATING ASIAN PACIFIC AMERICAN HERITAGE MONTH & MENTAL HEALTH AWARENESS MONTH

PRESS RELEASE

 

 

For Immediate Release


Mental health and South Asian communities


As the country debates healthcare and insurance reform, I thought it was important to discuss some of the health disparities that the members of the Asian American and Pacific Islander communities may be facing, in particular South Asians. To begin with, I am a Child and Adolescent psychiatrist (yes, that makes me a physician).


Growing Up as an AAPI

As part of discussing health care, my interns and I decided to combine and present stories about the stress of growing up as AAPIs.  We thought it might be interesting to highlight some of the issues facing AAPI students.
