亞裔美國人、夏威夷原住民及太平洋島嶼（AANHPI）青年的心理健康是一個重要但經常被忽視的議題。在最新的報告《超越表面》中，亞裔美國基金會（TAAF）深入探討了14至25歲AANHPI青年所面臨的獨特挑戰和壓力。這份全面的研究結合了青年焦點小組的個人見解和來自超過1400名調查參與者的數據，揭示了令人震驚的事實：



• 48% 的AANHPI青年表現出中度至重度抑鬱的跡象。

• 93% 的人表示在過去一年中經歷過某種形式的種族歧視。

• 更令人擔憂的是，每10名14至25歲的AANHPI青年中有3名曾認真考慮過或試圖自殺。


這份報告同時揭示了青年堅韌與支持的來源，強調友誼、家庭對話和文化身份如何對心理健康產生積極影響。它也挑戰了有害的刻板印象，如「模範少數族裔」的迷思，並倡導針對這個多元化社區的心理健康危機進行量身定制的干預措施。


無論您是家長、教育者、政策制定者還是盟友，這份報告都是一個行動呼籲。探索這些發現，了解我們如何共同努力，為AANHPI青年創造更光明的未來。

Mental health among Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) youth is a critical yet often overlooked topic. In their latest report, Beyond the Surface, The Asian American Foundation (TAAF) dives into the unique challenges and stressors faced by young AANHPIs aged 14–25. This comprehensive study combines personal insights from youth focus groups with data from over 1,400 survey participants, uncovering startling realities:


• 48% of young AANHPIs show signs of moderate to severe depression.

• 93% have faced some form of race-based discrimination in the past year.

 • Alarmingly, 3 in 10 AANHPIs aged 14-25 report seriously considering or attempting suicide.


The report also sheds light on sources of resilience and support, highlighting how friendships, family conversations, and cultural identity contribute to mental health. It challenges harmful stereotypes, such as the model minority myth, and advocates for tailored interventions to address the mental health crisis within this diverse community.


Whether you’re a parent, educator, policymaker, or ally, this report is a call to action. Explore the findings and discover how we can work together to create a brighter future for AANHPI youth.
