A Personal Journey - Advocating for Your Child with Special Needs

Asian American Women's Health Symposium: Healthy Living During Challenging Times is designed to help community healthcare providers learn more about issues affecting Asian American women living in New York City. Topics will include concerns for 50+ and over; human trafficking; patient navigation models; Autistic children; genetic diseases; developmental disabled; connecting with government officials and a healthcare reform update.

Our invited speakers are experts in addressing the health and wellness needs of women of East Asian, South Asian and Pacific Island descent from within the community. We hope their insights will inspire a spirited dialogue about how we can continue to build on maximizing the health care of Asian American women.

The symposium will be of particular interest to health care professionals, health educators, social service providers, students, advocates and individuals who live or work in the community.
