Children & Youth
South Asian children and adolescents face unique challenges created by living between two cultures. We are developing services and referrals based on the following issues:
- Discrimination, bias.
- Acculturation (balancing/merging cultures)
- Model-minority stereotype/ label (cultural expectations placed on a certain minority group)
- Communication issues with family, community, society.
- Cultural and language barriers.
- Perpetual feeling of being an alien.
