As part of our month-long celebration of 2023 Pan Asian American Heritage Month at Yale, join us for what promises to be an illuminating talk and moderated Q&A with Dr. Jenny T. Wang as we explore topics related to identity, mental health and its importance to unlocking new possibilities for the Asian and Asian American communities as we strive towards building more sustainable futures for all. Attendees will have an opportunity to win a signed copy of Dr. Wang's book. This event is open to all Yale community members and the New Haven community.

Dr. Wang is a Taiwanese American clinical psychologist, speaker and author on the intersections of Asian American identity, mental health, and racial trauma. She received her doctorate from the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center and completed her postdoctoral training at the Duke University Medical Center. Her professional mission is to destigmatize mental health within the Asian community and empower Asian Americans to prioritize their mental well-being.
