Convening and Collaborating to Assess Mental Health Needs in the Filipino Community

Filipino people are a growing population in Canada. However, there is limited information available on the mental health of this population, including the factors and conditions that shape mental health outcomes, help-seeking, and access to care. This proposed project will bring together researchers, research users, and community members to co-identify research and knowledge mobilization gaps and priorities in enhancing the mental health of Filipino communities in British Columbia, Canada. Through the convening and collaborating activities outlined in this proposed work, our team will co-develop research that is directly informed by community perspectives and experiences.
