Asian men are experiencing a mental health epidemic.
In 2015-2019, Asian men were the least likely to use mental health services compared to any other race and gender combination (SAMHSA, 2021).
In order to combat this, Proud Asian Men was created.
Proud Asian Men is a support group and initiative created by JinShan Collective and hosted under Asian Mental Health Project whose mission is to create a safe and brave space for Asian men to explore the intersection of their culture and masculinity in a supportive environment.
This is the second Proud Asian Men daylong mental health retreat in the Bay Area on 11/1 from 9 AM to 6 PM hosted at JACL SF.
