In March 2016, CommunityWise Resource Centre started a process of Anti-Racist Organizational Change (AROC). With AROC, we have been using anti-racism as an approach to strengthen our commitment to diversity, inclusion, and equity.
In this resource, we share the story of how the AROC process unfolded. Why This Resource?
The purpose of this resource booklet is to:
• Tell the story of how our anti-racist organizational change project started.
• Share some of the resources we’ve found and developed along the way.
• Provide guidance on how other nonprofits can start their own process.

Asian American Youth Language Use: Perspectives Across Schools and Communities Recent studies of Asian American youth language practices have presented compelling insights about the identities and migration experiences of young people of Asian descent. This chapter offers a detailed examination of the relationship between language use and select issues concerning Asian American youth,
including social life, schooling, acculturation, and intergenerational relationships. URL : https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/pdf/10.3102/0091732X10383213 DEI Issue Type: Ethnicity, Race
Assessment of Anxiety and Depression in Asian American Youth This article reviews the current state of research on the assessment of anxiety and depression in Asian American children and adolescents. Contrary to lay perceptions of Asian Americans as a “model minority,” research indicates that rates of depression and anxiety among Asian American adults are comparable to those found among European American populations. Given that Asian American populations also under- utilize mental health services, the need to assess and treat anxiety and depression in Asian American youth is critical. This commentary includes directions for future research as well as clinical intervention. URL: https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/pdf/10.1207/s15374424jccp3302_7?needAccess=true
