Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures are the oldest and continuing cultures in the world, dating to at least 65,000 years ago. Culture is distinct to each language group of First Nation Australians, and as there are over 250 languages, this makes First Nations culture incredibly rich, diverse and complex. It is important to note this to avoid homogenising the identity of Aboriginal nations. As we observe National Reconciliation Week 2024, ‘Now More Than Ever’ we should be celebrating First Nations culture as it is an acknowledgement of history as well as provides an opportunity for First Nations Australians to continue or reclaim and revitalise cultural traditions that have been eroded as a result of past and current colonialism and assimilation policies. We’ve put together a short list of meaningful and respectful ways to celebrate the rich cultural heritage of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.

The American Addiction Centers recently reported that despite lower substance abuse rates, there's a hidden crisis among Asian Americans... Here’s what you need to know📊 🔍 Alarming Treatment Gap ▪Only 3.3% of Asian Americans needing substance abuse treatment receive it, compared to 11.1% of the general population Why the Gap? ▪ Cultural barriers, language issues, and stigma around SUD are key factors Interesting Subgroup Differences ▪ Drinking: Japanese Americans (13.1%) vs. Chinese Americans (9.1%) ▪ Heavy Drinking: Korean Americans (3.5%) vs. Chinese Americans (1.2%) ▪ Marijuana Use: Korean Americans (9.2%) vs. Chinese Americans (2.9%) By delaying seeking help, severe consequences arise, often leading to arrest, hospitalization, or homelessness, making intervention a forced necessity. We must continue to raise awareness and improve access to culturally sensitive treatment options for all. 📌 https://lnkd.in/eMeGCBFB #SubstanceAbuseAwareness #AsianAmericanHealth #HealthEquity #EmployeeBenefits #WorkplaceWellness #DiversityInclusion #BreakingBarriers
May is Asian American & Pacific Islander Heritage Month—a time of commemoration that not only highlights the rich traditions and contributions of these communities but also underscores the ongoing challenges they face in achieving equitable health and wellness. May is coming to an end, but it's imperative that we continue to support initiatives that enhance cultural understanding, promote health equity, and advocate for systemic changes year-round. Let's continue to foster and strengthen partnerships with Pacific and Asian American communities. Building and maintaining strong connections with local leaders, communities, and organizations will help amplify voices and address specific needs. By working together, we can cultivate a more inclusive society that recognizes and values the contributions of all its members!
