Stanley
Sue Center for Cultural Competency Endowed Fund
AAFS was established to address the availability, accessibility
and utilization of mental health services among the Asian
American population in the greater Houston area. One of the
major barriers to care has been the lack of licensed and trained
mental health professionals who are linguistically and culturally
competent in serving the ethnically and linguistically diverse
Asian population. This workforce issue, or lack thereof, continues
to be a major challenge. The
establishment of the Stanley Sue Center for Cultural Competency
is dedicated to the promotion of cultural competency, will
serve as a community resource and provide training opportunities
for mental health professionals of all ethnic backgrounds.
The Center will award scholarships to recruit and encourage
linguistically and culturally competent students to become
exceptional mental health professionals and to serve our
community upon completion of training.
