SAYHU supports is a series of peer-to peer conversations for community members of all ages. This first series of discussions will focus on family dynamics. We will work together to establish ground rules and open communication in a safe and confidential space.
Monthly session dates are as follows (join us for just one or as many as you like!):
April 10
May 15
June 12
July 17
August 14
In April, the discussion will be based on boundaries.
BOUNDARIES.
What are they? More importantly, how do you establish them? Where do you draw the lines? Are they challenging to establish? How do they protect you? Why do you establish them in the first place? How do you uphold them? We will talk about any and all intersections of South Asian families and boundaries in a safe, digital space for SAYHU community members, as well as non-community members if they wish to attend.
Community member Huda Adnan-Mitha will support this new project. Huda is a Clinical Services Intern at Project Girls and earning an MSW in the Graduate College of Social Work (GCSW) at the University of Houston, graduating this May with a clinical concentration and specialization in Health & Behavioral Health. Huda believes that our community should have accessible, professional, and culture-specific mental health providers to support empowerment and healing.
While this is not clinical support for it is an opportunity to build community and learn more about group support strategies for mental health. We can direct participants to resources for additional support.
