Embracing Our Narratives: An AAPI Mental Health Workshop

As Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) college students, we often navigate the complexities of balancing cultural identity, family expectations, and personal wellbeing. This workshop series, "Embracing Our Narratives," provides a brave space for AAPI students to explore mental health through the lens of art and literature. Workshops will be facilitated by AAPI-identifying mental health counselors who aim to co-create a safe, judgment-free environment with students and for students. This space encourages AAPI students to embrace their full identities, amplify their voices, and prioritize their wellbeing. This workshop is open to AAPI Cal State LA students seeking to deepen their self-understanding, cultivate healing practices, and connect with peers who share similar lived experiences.
