CARE & CONNECT: Understanding & Recognizing Cultural Trauma
Jul 23 at 6:30 PM - 8:00 PM
The Museum of Chinese in America is proud to partner with Connect/Hamilton Madison House to present a series of public programs focused on mental wellness: Care & Connect. This series aims to provide accessible resources while creating a space for open conversation, helping to dismantle the stigma surrounding mental health support.
Join us for our second Care & CONNECT event, Understanding & Recognizing Cultural Trauma, a workshop led by Hamilton Madison House’s Dr. Jihan Ryu and Dr. Kristin Kim-Martin.
Dr. Kim-Martin is a psychologist whose research centers on cultural trauma and the immigration experience. Her dissertation explored how immigration shapes the help-seeking behaviors of second-generation Korean Americans. Dr. Jihan Ryu is CONNECT’s primary psychiatrist, providing trauma-informed, culturally competent care in our Lower East Side community.
