ORGANIZATION DESCRIPTION

Founded in 1965, the Chinese-American Planning Council, Inc. (CPC) aims to promote the social and economic empowerment of Chinese American, immigrant, and low-income communities. Today, CPC is the nation's largest Asian American social services agency and offers more than 50 programs at over 35 sites throughout New York City, including early childhood education, school-age care, youth services, workforce development, community services, and senior services. CPC strives to be the premier social service and leadership development organization. In 2017, CPC launched Advancing Our CommUNITY, its organization-wide strategy to expand services to address persistent needs and emerging trends and to improve leadership skills among staff and community members. In 2022, our core programs and emergency services reached 200,000 people living in all five boroughs and all 51 city council districts. In the summer of 2022, CPC was recognized as the number one Chinese American organization in New York City to recommend to a Chinese immigrant looking for in-language and culturally competent resources according to a recent survey. This accomplishment is a testament to the incredible work and dedication of our staff. (For more information, please visit: https://www.cpc-nyc.org/)

PROGRAM SUMMARY

The CRSS (Community Recovery and Safety Services) Project has three primary goals:

1. raise AAPI (Asian American and Pacific Islander) community awareness of health and mental health care needs and available services/resources, including those established to offer relief for pandemic-/economic-related issues
2. reduce cultural stigma surrounding mental health care and/or reduce/remove barriers to accessing services
3. advance efforts to combat anti-Asian racism and violence, and reduce the impact of growing insecurity and anxiety among vulnerable Asian Americans.

CRSS offers case management, mental health screenings, health and wellness-related trainings, psycho-educational workshops, individual counseling, group support services, and more. This program is geared toward serving the broad community of youth, families, and seniors who have been impacted by the traumatic nature of the pandemic and the anti-Asian violence that has more than doubled in recent years in NYC, and to ensure that those in need of additional support are able to access it in a culturally and linguistically accessible setting that meets their needs.
