to Oct 12

UNDOING RACISM® REGIONAL WORKSHOP NYC

We are excited to invite you to the Undoing Racism® & Community Organizing Workshop by the People’s Institute for Survival and Beyond (PISAB), a powerful 3-day in-person gathering designed to give us foundational analysis, deepen our understanding of systemic racism and strengthen our collective capacity for organizing toward change. 

This intensive, interactive process challenges participants to analyze the structures of power and privilege that hinder social equity and prepares them to be effective organizers for justice. You must be able to attend all 3 days and times. 

📅 Dates & Times

  • Friday, October 10 · 5:30 PM–9:00 PM

  • Saturday, October 11 · 9:00 AM–5:00 PM

  • Sunday, October 12 · 9:00 AM–5:00 PM

📍 Location
The Flea Theater
20 Thomas St, New York, NY 10007

This workshop aligns with NYCAAMH’s commitment to an anti-racist, anti-oppressive lens and to advancing decolonizing values in mental health and community wellness. Rooted in collective learning and organizing, NYCAAMH seeks to drive sustained action, nurture healing, and build toward collective liberation. We hope that having this foundational analysis can support us in examining our role as mental health practitioners and linking our experiences to understand broader systemic issues.

JOIN US

If you are interested in participating please fill out this form by Friday, October 4th. Filling out the form does not guarantee workshop attendance. You will receive a confirmation from NYCAAMH.

We are committed to making this workshop accessible. A limited number of sliding scale scholarships are available on a first-come, first-served basis, with priority for those attending all three days and connected to NYCAAMH. Continuing Education Units (CEUs) can be provided to LMSW, LCSW, LMHC, LMFT, LP, and Licensed Psychologists upon completion. 

We also encourage participants whose organizations provide professional development funding to register through their workplace and attend with NYCAAMH. This helps us reserve scholarship seats for those without access to institutional support.

This is an open workshop to the larger NYC community. There will be other participants from various backgrounds, professions, organizers, that can attend. See here for more info. If you know other people who might be interested in attending the workshop outside of the NYCAAMH network send them the official PISAB workshop link.

If you have any questions please reach out to us at hello@nycaamh.org

‘Chia Sẻ’ Community Zine Lab

‘Chia Sẻ’ Community Zine Lab

We’re excited to share a new offering from NYCAAMH Executive Member, Hân Nguyễn, LMSW. She will be facilitating a monthly lab as part of the Asian American Justice + Innovative Lab community leadership development program. Join us on a community zine lab project on 3rd Thursdays of each month starting February 15th from 9pm-10:30pm EST / 6pm-7:30pm PST. 

Embark on a creative journey with our 'Chia Sẻ' Community Zine Lab, exploring Asian diaspora stories through food. 'Chia Sẻ,' meaning 'sharing' in Vietnamese, embodies our commitment to reflecting on experiences around food, connecting with ancestral roots, and exploring the emotions of grief, displacement, and joy within our Asian diaspora. Join us as we draw inspiration from the history of zine-making in Asian American activism. In each session, engage in a vibrant mix of storytelling, reflection, and creative expression - a powerful way to process the complexities of our shared experiences. Let’s weave our collective narrative into a community zine, 'Chia Sẻ,' that shares the diverse and resonant stories of the Asian diaspora.

This is an open lab to the community starting February and ends in June. Folks are welcome to join any of the 5-part sessions. We welcome anyone who identifies as part of the Asian Diaspora. Please register below.

NYCAAMH Theater Night!

NYCAAMH Theater Night!

For those of us who have been to Chinatown in Manhattan, we have undoubtedly seen "Private Danny Chen Way" as part of Elizabeth Street between Canal and Bayard. Danny Chen is a part of history in NYC, and it is important for those of us in the Asian American mental health community to know his story.

NYCAAMH is grateful to PAC NYC for offering us a limited number of free tickets with pre-arranged seating for all of us to sit as a group to watch An American Soldier.

Please click here to find out more and register by 12pm Thursday, 5/16/24, if you are interested in claiming some of those free tickets and joining us at 6pm on Saturday, May 18th, for our first ever NYCAAMH Theater Night! Once all the reserved tickets have been claimed, we will update this form and inform those who registered about their ticket status. We encourage you to purchase tickets on your own and watch the show even if you are unable to obtain a complimentary ticket from us.

For those in the AAPI community, use code "PACAAPI" to save 10% on tickets at link.pacnyc.org/PACAAPI all week long.

We will meet for a meal at 6pm before we head over to the Perelman Performing Arts Center to watch the show together at 8pm. The show should last for about two hours and be followed by a post-show discussion in which "Members of the cast and creative team of An American Soldier discuss the inspiration, themes, and creative process behind this powerful new opera."
