A resolution supporting the designation of May 10, 2023, as "National Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander Mental Health Day".
This is a Senate resolution (SRES 205), not a law, that symbolically designates May 10, 2023, as "National Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander Mental Health Day." It expresses the Senate's support for raising awareness about mental health challenges in the AANHPI community, citing statistics like 24.5% of Asian adults receiving mental health services in 2021 and suicide being the leading cause of death for AANHPI youth aged 10-24. The resolution encourages federal and state agencies to improve mental health care access and reduce stigma for this community. It does not create new policies or funding, serving only as a symbolic recognition.
