Asian and Asian-American youth today face a variety of stressful situations, ranging from social and familial pressures to an increasingly rigorous and competitive academic system. Furthermore, students who experience intergenerational conflicts in the home have an inc
reased risk for psychological difficulties. Developing students’ positive social and emotional outlook through open discussions on well-being and mental health exponentially increases levels of success in their future lives. Studies have shown that students who receive quality social and emotional support from caring adults have the potential for improved attitudes and behaviors, greater academic success, and reduced levels of emotional distress. Additionally, students who feel “listened to” by their parents and guardians are even more motivated and perform better in school when compared to those who lack these positive relationships. conference is a free gathering for parents, college students, and community leaders of Asian descent who seek to explore ways of promoting both the success AND well-being of Asian and Asian-American students. The conference is organized by a group of faculty, students, and alum at Harvard Graduate School of Education, as well as professionals from the Greater Boston area to give parents, guardians, and college students.
