DESCRIPTION:Cost: Free\nAdmission: \nAs Asian Pacific Islander Desi Americ
ans (APIDA)\, we grew up with a multitude of difficulties due to our cult
ural and ethnical identity. And due to these difficulties\, we are strivi
ng to create a community that is a safe space for all members of our comm
unity.  \;It requires many hands to build an inclusive and prospering
APIDA community. But &minus\; what if we&rsquo\;re missing a very import
ant voice from an APIDA minority that was shunned by previous generations
? Join us as we learn more about physical\, mental\, and emotional disabi
lities. The purpose of this workshop is to equip us with the tools to rea
ch out to one another despite of our differences. And may we realize that
are much more similar than we are different.\nFacilitated by Angela Chen
