PRAISE FOR FOR THE NEXT GENERATION

"This book is a vital resource for researchers, clinicians, and students, as well as for community members, including legislators, educators, and parents. Nancy H. Liu has assembled an impressive group of leaders in AANHPI research who present cutting-edge science and innovative, practical applications. Common themes throughout the book are: (a) the unique cultural aspects of diverse AANHPI groups, such as collectivism and emotional restraint; and (b) the sociocultural aspects of being marginalized, such as discrimination and the model minority myth."
--GORDON C. NAGAYAMA HALL, PhD, Emeritus Professor of Psychology, University of Oregon

"Drawing on rigorous research, clinical expertise, and deep cultural understanding, this volume offers essential insights into AAPI youth mental health. At a pivotal moment for AAPI communities, the authors illuminate both the unique vulnerabilities and the considerable strengths that shape young people's lives, while providing practical, evidence-informed strategies to foster resilience, empowerment, and hope. This is a must-read for clinicians, educators, and caregivers committed to supporting AAPI youth."
--ERICA H. LEE, PhD, Assistant Professor & Training Director, Boston Children's Hospital, Harvard Medical School

"Thoughtfully conceived and persuasively expressed, For the Next Generation represents a timely, nuanced, and necessary advance in the conversation about AANHPI youth mental health."
--JUSTIN A. CHEN, MD, MPH, Associate Professor, Department of Psychiatry, Weill Cornell Medicine, New York-Presbyterian
