Michael Byun, executive director of ACRS, joins Emerald City Echoes to discuss the implications of cultural mores and biases in healthcare practice, the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on youth and elderly Asians, and policy changes enacted by the President's Advisory Commission on Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders to provide more accurate and inclusive legislation in the United States.
Asian Counseling and Referral Service is home of Washington state's only food bank catering to AAPI diets, and is a leading social justice organization working to provide accessible, supportive healthcare and civic engagement programs in Seattle's King County.
