Sponsored By: Representative Chu, Judy [D-CA-28]

Introduced

Summary

Designate May 10, 2025 as National Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander Mental Health Day. It would lift public attention to mental health disparities in AANHPI communities and push for culturally and linguistically appropriate services.

Show full summary
  • AANHPI families would get a national prompt to prioritize mental health and link cultural and linguistic heritage to well‑being.
  • It spotlights high unmet need: about 65.3% of an estimated 2.9 million AANHPI individuals with a mental health condition do not receive treatment.
  • It highlights youth risks by noting suicide was the leading cause of death for AANHPI people ages 10 to 24 from 2018 to 2023.
  • It urges federal, state, and local health agencies to adopt laws, policies, and guidance to improve help‑seeking and to expand the mental health workforce, including paraprofessionals, training, and ongoing support.
