No Corners Left Uncovered

This Mental Illness Awareness Week, WAVES hosted our first-ever QPR Suicide Prevention Training in Chinese, an incredible step toward making mental health education more inclusive and accessible.

A huge thank-you to our wonderful and passionate QPR trainer, Claire Chen, for leading such an engaging and courageous session. Nearly half of our participants were college students, reflecting the growing commitment of young people to mental health advocacy and peer support💚

Cultural relevance and language access are critical for suicide prevention. Mental illness doesn’t discriminate, and by offering training in multiple languages, we move closer to ensuring that everyone in our community has the tools and knowledge to help save lives.
