APPEAL's Young Adult Leadership Summit 2022

APPEAL's (Asian Pacific Partners for Empowerment, Advocacy, and Leadership) 
Young Adult Leadership Summit 
11 AM - 3 PM PST (2 PM - 6 PM EST)
01/31/2022

The summit aims to recruit young adult leaders in the Asian American community who are interested in advocating for the COVID-19 Vaccine. Their goal is to generate spaces for them to have opportunities for dialogue to mentally check in on their experiences throughout the pandemic, but also to provide them various resources and potential skills to build upon their capacity to educate and inform their communities of the benefits of being vaccinated and its outcomes in this fight against COVID-19.

APPEAL had the first United in Hope Summit last month and has recruited 11 amazing young adults who are excited to share space and start this journey. With the next summit, they hope to recruit an additional 10 AA Young Adults to complete their cohort.

COVID-19 has taken a serious toll, the organizations say, on top of already mounting challenges. Policy changes are urgently needed, they say. “Today’s declaration is an urgent call to policymakers at all levels of government – we must treat this mental health crisis like the emergency it is,” AAP President Lee Savio Beers, MD, said in a statement. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found that between March and October 2020, emergency department visits for mental health emergencies rose by 24% for children ages 5-11 years and 31% for children ages 12-17 years. ED visits for suspected suicide attempts increased nearly 51% amon...
