Pactie-Cal Matters, WeekliesBy Anisha MenathNovember 10, 2021Leave a comment

Mental health is a topic that can be controversial, taboo and contentious within APIDA (Asian, Pacific Islander, Desi American) families, especially as the next generation faces college in a world entrenched in the impacts of COVID-19 and unfamiliar to parents.

With society’s attention diverted toward the election and the approaching holiday season, it is easy to neglect…
