    Event Overview

    A pilot program spearheaded by AAPI Equity Alliance is creating culturally-centered, community-based groups as healing spaces for five distinct Asian American communities (Cambodian, Chinese, Filipino, Japanese, and Korean) looking to make sense of their experiences with racism and the rise of hate crimes.

    Adapted from Black Liberation psychologists’ “Radical Healing Framework” which helps African Americans deal with generations of racial trauma, the program is called Healing Our People Through Engagement (HOPE). It builds on the strengths of individuals and the cultural practices of their communities to grow a shared understanding and collective response to ongoing racism.

    Speakers from the Japanese, Chinese and Korean community organizations will share their perspectives on the program.

    Presented by Ethnic Media Services
