Celebrating Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month

This year’s theme, Power in Unity: Strengthening Communities Together, highlights the importance of coming together to share stories, uplift one another, and build meaningful connections across communities. It is a reminder that our collective strength grows when we recognize and support each other.

May is National Stroke Awareness Month, and this year the focus is on recognizing the warning signs — B.E. F.A.S.T.

Balance: Sudden loss of balance
Eyes: Sudden vision changes
Face: Uneven smile or drooping
Arms: Weakness or numbness
Speech: Slurred or unusual speech
Time: Call 9‑1‑1 immediately

Stroke risk is rising among younger adults, including people in their 30s and 40s—making awareness important for all ages. Save or share this post so you can recognize the signs and act quickly.
