Dear Claudine,

Thank you for telling me about your benefit storytelling event this Saturday.

I’m cheering for you!  Thank you for raising awareness about mental illness in the Asian community.

Sincerely,

Teresa LeYung-Ryan

Thank You for Being Born

Mental Illness in the Asian Community

A benefit for Asian Community Mental Health Services

Claudine Woo

and

Kenny Yun

Stage Werx Theatre    446 Valencia (near 16th) . . . San Francisco, CA
     ”Thanks for Being Born” was established to raise awareness about mental illness in the Asian community, where it remains under-diagnosed and under-treated. It also provides an opportunity to recognize the extent of support and care provided by Asian Community Mental Health Services, for clients and their families. With culturally-sensitive support, families do not have to suffer alone in silence; they can get help for their loved ones.
