Mar

With the support of Senator Chuck Schumer, CPC was awarded $500,000 in the federal budget for the AAPI & Immigrant Mental Health Support Services initiative. This funding will empower CPC to expand access to direct mental health services, referral navigation, case management, outreach, and education efforts, benefiting up to 12,000 community members.

Additionally, it will combat the rise in anti-Asian violence through partnerships with local city, state, and federal agencies, elected officials, and peer nonprofits.

CPC expects to engage with over 100,000 individuals through multifaceted outreach and educational campaigns across various multilingual media platforms, websites, and publications.

Thank you also to Senator Gillibrand and Representatives Nadler and Goldman for your support on this matter.
