Supporting the designation of May 10, 2025, as "National Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander Mental Health Day".

H. Res. 407 is a non-binding House resolution that designates May 10, 2025 as “National Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander Mental Health Day.” The resolution expresses support for raising awareness about mental health within AANHPI communities, emphasizes the importance of culturally and linguistically appropriate care, and encourages federal, state, and local health agencies to adopt policies and guidance aimed at improving access to mental health services for AANHPI and other communities of color. It does not create new laws or authorize spending; instead, it signals congressional recognition and invites action by government entities and stakeholders to address disparities and stigma surrounding mental health. The preamble highlights several concerns, including the diversity within AANHPI populations, historically low use of mental health services, high suicide risk among AANHPI youth, the need for data disaggregation, language access barriers, a growing need for more culturally competent providers, the lasting impact of discrimination and trauma, and the potential benefits of recognizing cultural heritage for mental well-being.
