We are deeply saddened by the passing of Dr. Stanley Sue, an inspirational and transformational leader of RAMS throughout our history. Dr. Sue was an innovative pioneer in the field of Asian American psychology and a tireless advocate for the mental health needs of Asian American communities. As the founding Director of the American Psychological Association certified National Asian American Psychology Training Center at RAMS, he paved the way for generations of professionals to provide clinically sound and culturally humble mental health services to underserved and underrepresented communities. Dr. Sue’s legacy of impact on Asian American psychology will continue to inspire future generations of psychologists and mental health practitioners.

Happy #Juneteenth! RAMS administration and most programs are closed today in observance of the holiday. 

🧠✨ June is Men’s Mental Health Month! Do you know? Research shows immigrant men are less likely to use mental health services than immigrant women, making men’s mental health a crucial conversation. To break the stigma and normalize seeking mental health support, we’re featuring Koorosh Ostowari who shared his personal healing journey of carrying the weight of intergenerational trauma growing up in an immigrant family.  💬🫂 It's okay to reach out, seek help, and break the cycle. #MensMentalHealth  To watch the full Breaking Barriers Forum, visit https://lnkd.in/g8TUfiPY
