New American Youth Mental Health (NAYMH) builds community for New Americans through youth-led spaces that center lived experiences, foster learning, and advocate for equitable access to mental health care.

We create safe, supportive environments where young people can share their stories, learn from one another, and work together to break down barriers to mental health support in immigrant and refugee communities.
