West Covina Library

Seminar Room

This workshop will look at the trauma and stressors faced by immigrants as well as ways to support immigrants and build resilience within their communities.

Department of Mental Health Promoters Workshops tackle a range of mental health topics to help Angelenos understand and manage their mental health. We are working to reduce stigma and empower individuals to seek help when needed and recognize problems before they become crises.

In this program, we'll discuss some of the mental health challenges faced by many immigrants and the trauma those challenges can cause. We'll look at stressors often felt by immigrants and ways to help support and build resiliency within Los Angeles' immigrant communities.

No matter what you're going through, LA County Library is a resource for you. Access the tools and knowledge you need to prioritize your mental health and build a resilient future.
