Support our mission by contributing a donation.
Your donation to Uplifting Minds supports creating culturally competent mental health care for South Asian youth by funding specialized training programs, workshops, evidence-based resources, and professional development initiatives. These efforts empower therapists, enhance therapeutic approaches, and improve mental health outcomes, ensuring young people have the tools to thrive.
Who Are We?
Uplifting Minds bridges the gap between South Asian youth, their parents, and mental health professionals to break down cultural barriers that prevent young people from seeking help. We recognize that in the South Asian community, mental health is too often overlooked, creating dangerous silence around struggles with depression, anxiety, and suicide. Through specialized cultural competency training programs and advocacy across Michigan, we empower healthcare providers, educators, and families to foster open, honest dialogue about mental health. Our work creates safe spaces where students feel supported in reaching out to both their parents and professionals before it's too late.
