The COVID-19 Pandemic exacerbated and shed light on gaps that exist in California's healthcare system. This session addresses these inefficiencies through several approaches. Such as, how we can close the care gap by understanding Asian American and Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander Youth at Risk for Suicide in Los Angeles. Moreover, essential workers on the frontlines of the pandemic have faced profound health, economic, and social challenges. Findings from the Work and Wellness among Filipino Americans during COVID-19 Study examines the importance of addressing economic hardship and workplace safety concerns, supporting caregivers with recommended safety measures and access to financial and health resources.
