Tackling Asian American Health Disparities

Join Us at the Health Equity Forum: Addressing Asian American Health Disparities Together!


Why This Matters:

Did you know that less than 2% of clinical trial participants in the U.S. are Asian American—despite being the fastest-growing racial group?


Or that liver cancer mortality rates are twice as high for Asian Americans compared to White Americans?


These disparities aren’t just statistics—they reflect real gaps in research, care, and advocacy that affect our families and communities every day.


The Challenges We Face:

  • Clinical Trial Gaps: Language barriers, cultural stigma, and lack of outreach leave Asian Americans underrepresented in life-saving research.

  • Cancer Disparities: Liver and stomach cancers hit asian community harder, yet participation in related trials remains critically low.

  • Heart Health Inequities: Cardiovascular disease is a top killer, but research often overlooks differences between subgroups (e.g., South Asians face higher risks than East Asians).


Let’s Change the Narrative—Together!This Saturday, May 17, join us for a FREE Community Health Forum in San Diego, CA (12–5 PM)!


Hear from experts like Dr. Dung Trinh, connect with advocates, and learn how to:
