Parents of the mentally ill or developmentally disabled maintain high aspirations for their children despite the inherent challenges they may face. For 35 years, Asian Community Mental Health Services has worked with generations of Asian and Pacific Islander families to elevate the possibilities of the affected and to help them realize their fullest potential. We celebrate decades of service and salute families and partners who go above and beyond to help promote personal empowerment and self-deteremination for our children and youth.
Above & Beyond raises awareness and critical funds for culturally competent mental health, developmental disabilities, family support, and youth empowerment programs dedicated to low-income Asians and Pacific Islanders.
