Pressures in the API/A Community: An AAMP x Thrive event

Have you ever felt like you could never live up to your parents’ expectations and the sacrifices that your parents have made? Do you feel uncomfortable bringing up mental health with your family? Have peers assumed your accomplishments due to your asian identity? If any of these questions resonate with you, come to our event and share! Popcorn will be provided ^.^

“The model minority mythology positions API/A’s as well-adjusted, well-mannered, smart, hardworking, and from financially well-off families, cloaking the very real struggles and challenges these students face.”
