“True community care is built on trust and connection, which is exactly why the growth of the mental health awareness fair is so meaningful. The Mayor’s Office of Community Mental Health is proud to partner with Empowerment of Asian Americans (EAA) and the Chinatown YMCA, showing what is possible when we lead with unity during AANHPI Heritage Month and Mental Health Awareness Month!”

OCMH Executive Director Eva Wong was quoted in World Journal’s coverage of EAA’s fourth annual Health and Wellness Day, which brought over 200 attendees and 27 Chinatown community partners together to share health resources and connect residents with culturally responsive mental health support close to home.
