Making WAVES at Webster University

Last week, we bore witness to an unforgettable screening of “Silent War” in St. Louis at Webster University!

The event brought together students, professionals, and community members for a powerful conversation presented by the AACS Mental Health Initiative and the school’s Department of Professional Counseling.

The post-screening panel was a powerful extension of the film itself, featuring Director Dr. Changfu Chang; Dr. Yujia Lei (Ph.D., CGP), Staff Psychologist at the Center for Counseling and Psychological Services at Washington University in St. Louis; Kristina Le, Vice President of OCA St. Louis and Board Chair of the St. Louis Vietnamese Community; and Jeff Wade, Executive Director of AACC St. Louis, Founder of Crypto World, and Co-Founder of zPods.

Dr. Hemla Singaravelu, Professor of Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Webster University and Program Co-Director of the AACS Mental Health Initiative, and Dr. Min Liu, Professor of Communication at SIUE, Director of AACS, and Co-Director of the AACS Mental Health Initiative, served as hosts for the evening.

Thank you to the panelists, hosts, community partners, and every attendee who showed up with openness and courage. We are continuously inspired seeing this piece resonate with audiences across the country.
