People who identify as LGBTQ+ face unique hurdles when it comes to mental health.

From gender dysphoria to increased levels of anxiety and depression, we all have a responsibility to look out for one another. During times of uncertainty, lean on your community.

Undocumented and cuir.
Undocuqueer and proud.

This Pride, we're channeling the power of our ancestors and elders. Everything we have today—is because of them.

As attacks on our community continue to grow more stark and more violent, we remember the LGBTQ legacy of advocacy and activism. Luckily, this fight isn't the first time our community has fought for our right to exist. We will always exist. We will never back down.

As we transition from AAPI Heritage Month into Pride Month, we uplift the people who are a part of both communities.

Asian Americans aren't a monolith. None of us are.

[California Endowment @CalEndow]

Asian Americans have a storied history of activism against war and bigotry. Now more than ever, it's important to channel our community's work to create change.

Don't forget our legacy!

Honoring the life and legacy of Dr. Clarence B. Jones, lifelong civil rights activist and lawyer who helped draft parts of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I Have a Dream" speech.

In 2024, we were honored to have received the @TheComNetwork Clarence B. Jones Impact Award for our work on the #Health4All communications campaign. Our connection to Dr. Clarence B. Jones is a great one.

Rest in Power.

We are heavy‑hearted, mourning the three victims and the profound loss of security felt by the families and communities of the Islamic Center of San Diego.

This tragedy is a stark reminder that acts of violence are rooted in the interconnected crises of racism and gun violence that continue to harm the health and well‑being of our communities.

In the early 1900s, South Asian immigrants made a home for themselves in California's Central Valley—a legacy that continues to live on more than a century later.

This lesser-known history is a little look at how immigration continues to guide our communities, and how our stories—no matter our background—often have many similarities.

"Community schools create the conditions for that trust by shifting mindsets to embrace partnership with community and position students, families, educators and community as members of the same team. In Anaheim, the Orange County Congregation Community Organization (OCCCO) has helped make that shift real."

California is a state forged and made better by immigrants!

Asian Americans aren't your model minority!

We're a community of diverse cultures, traditions, and practices. We are not a monolith.
