Your health matters, your MENTAL HEALTH matters, YOU matter. South Asian Network, in collaboration with the California Dept of Mental Health and the city of Artesia, is proud to announce the city’s first Mental Health Awareness Fair right here at Artesia Park – SATURDAY MAY 18th from 11AM to 8PM. Join us for a day of free food, music, dance, interactive workshops, and more! In our commitment to serving the South Asian Community, we would like to emphasize the importance of erasing the shame and guilt in conversations around mental health. If we normalize discussing and working through these feelings and daily struggles, we can help build stronger and safer bonds between our loved ones, our communities, and within ourselves. This is a family friendly event, and we encourage all children, parents, aunties, uncles, and elder community members to come celebrate life with us. Physical health ties into your mental health as well – join us in free yoga workshops, a walk/run, and vocal healing practices!
MH Professionals: Due to the sensitive nature of some of the topics discussed at this event, there will be multiple Mental Health professionals available, as well as a private room for processing any emotions/challenges that may come up. Please look for the individuals in Light Blue.
