Breaking Barriers: Cross Cultural Mental Health

Breaking Barriers: Cross-Cultural Mental Health is an initiative to support mental health promotion and to enhance personal growth among students of minority ethnic background. It strives to pilot programs and activities to optimize mental health promotion in a cross-cultural new environment with strong language and culture barriers. It actively encourages students to participate in counselling, peer support groups, workshops, and other relevant community human services to grow themselves. Breaking Barriers seeks collaboration with on-campus and community groups/organizations. It accommodates students' needs for language translation. Moreover, this club inspires students to get involved in the local community and to grow to become a leader or advocate rather than a "survivor" in the new culture.
