ASSYRIAN WELLNESS COLLABORATIVE BY CARMEN MORAD

COMMUNITY CAPACITY BUIDING A group of people are a community only when group members know each other well enough to ask for and offer each other support, and to act together. Capacity-building means strengthening the ability of communities to promote the wellbeing of their members, independent of services.

ASSYRIAN WELLNESS COLLABORATIVE MISSION: The Assyrian Wellness Collaborative is a community based partnership with BHRS, Prevention &Early Intervention to increase knowledge and improvement of mental health, physical health and overall wellness in the Assyrian community by decreasing sigma and barriers currently keeping Assyrians from receiving services. By developing and strengthening protective factors and reducing risk factors for SMI. Provide ongoing training and general support to the Assyrian population in Stanislaus County including refugees, adult, youth and immigration services. Connect individuals. Build and continue relationships, share each other’s wisdom to help us stay healthy and bring WELLNESS.

WHAT WE DO: Provide ongoing general support to the Assyrian population in Stanislaus County including refugees, adult, youth and immigration services. Connect individuals. Build and continue relationships, share each other’s wisdom to help us stay healthy and bring WELLNESS. Why we do what we do: The current Assyrian population has quadrupled over the years and many who have arrived to this county are refugees. Whether refugees or not, adult, youth or immigrant, many Assyrians have witnessed unpleasant experiences and or deal with existing stigma in our communities. The process of migration can develop psychological problems such as panic attacks, social phobia and PTSD or mental health illness such as depression and anxiety. As a Collaborative we are here to help decrease some of those barriers by supporting one another and each distinct Assyrian community regardless of religious preferences and beliefs. We believe that helping each other better understand each other’s circumstances, encouraging behavioral, emotional Health and wellness is important.
