What an honor to join the White House Forum on Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians and Pacific Islanders! I spoke at the breakout session “Supporting the Mental Health Care Needs of AA and NHPI Communities” alongside Richard Lui (journalist), Dr. DJ Ida (National Asian American Pacific Islander Mental Health Association), David Ko (CEO Calm) and Sahaj Kaur Kohli (Brown Girl Therapy). Kevin Kreider (Actor) and Trina Dutta (SAMHSA) also joined!
Highlights? Getting a shout-out from Senator Mazie Hirono at the kick-off! Plus meeting and speaking with Vice President Harris!! And all the other inspirational people there like seeing Dr. Russel Jeung again, Act to Change and Gold House! Watch the plenary sessions here including VP Harris!
