Maum’s Founding Director, Dr. Park, will deliver a workshop to a diverse room of high school students at the Anderson Munger Family YMCA in the heart of Los Angeles’s Koreatown as part of KYCC’s Unwind Your Mind: Koreatown Youth Summit on April 22. The interactive workshop provides an accessible introduction to race, racism, and microaggressions. The event is funded by Los Angeles County Department of Public Health, Substance Abuse Prevention and Control (SAPC); Sierra Health Foundation - Elevate Youth California; and Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services (LACDCFS).

Unwind Your Mind provides an opportunity for Koreatown youth to participate in healthy alternative activities to drug use. Stress-reducing, fun and interactive workshops at the event include hip-hop dance, pet therapy, self-defense lessons and board games. Youth participants enjoyed prizes, food and games.

KYCC’s Clinical Services, Youth Services and Prevention Education staff participated in making this yearly event possible.
