    CHINATOWN AFTER SEPTEMBER 11TH: An Economic Impact Study An Interim Report Asian American Federation of New York April 4, 2002 In Collaboration With: Federal Reserve Bank of New York Fiscal Policy Institute Ralph and Goldy Lewis Center for Regional Policy Studies, University of California, Los Angeles The views expressed in this report are those of the Asian American Federation and do not necessarily reflect the views or positions of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York or the Federal Reserve System, the Fiscal Policy Institute, or the Ralph and Goldy Lewis Center for Regional Policy Studies, UCLA. CHINATOWN After September 11th FOREWORD Nearly seven months after September 11th, New Yorkers of all backgrounds continue to feel the pains of the unfortunate loss of life while we work hard to heal our wounds and rebuild our city. The impact of September 11th has certainly been pervasive beyond words, as has been the outpouring of heroism and philanthropy demonstrated by so many ordinary people, uniformed as well as civilian, during these trying times. All of us at the Asian American Federation pay our respects to those who have lost or given their lives, offer our best wishes to those families who have endured the tragedy, and salute the fine spirit of New York. The lingering aftermath of September 11th is deeply felt in neighborhoods close to Ground Zero, including Chinatown. During the first three months after September 11th, stories abounded about the desperation of many low-wage workers who became unemployed and the resolution of many small business owners who worried about their firms’ prospects.

  • Asian American Mental Health: a Post-September 11Th Needs Assessment
    Asian American Mental Health: A Post-September 11th Needs Assessment Asian American Federation of New York September 2003 Copyright © 2003 by Asian American Federation of New York Support for this publication was provided by two grants from The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation in Princeton, New Jersey Asian American Mental Health: A Post-September 11th Needs Assessment Foreword The second anniversary of September 11th finds New York City further along in its recovery from the events of that date, poised in a stage of both memory and renewal. The last two years have given our city, our nation and the world an opportunity to absorb and reflect upon the tragedy’s myriad meanings and its societal and global consequences. Cadences of renewal resonate externally, with the progression of plans for rebuilding the World Trade Center site, efforts by various constituencies to revitalize the crippled regional economy, and restoration of other physical resources lost in the disaster’s wake. However, for individuals directly affected by the loss of a loved one or other emotionally traumatic experiences connected to September 11th, the personal recovery process can be obscured from the outside. The painful processes of grieving over a loss and rebuilding or moving on with a life that was instantly and deeply transformed can be an isolated experience – one that is not easily comprehended by or shared with others. For Asian Americans, this is especially true. As described in this report, in times of distress, Asian cultural values of self-reliance, reservation and non-expression typically prompt individuals to avoid seeking assistance in dealing with emotional issues.

    September 24, 2021 The Honorable Chuck Schumer The Honorable Nancy Pelosi U.S. Senate U.S. House of Representatives Washington, DC 20510 Washington, DC 20515 The Honorable Mitch McConnell The Honorable Kevin McCarthy U.S. Senate U.S. House of Representatives Washington, DC 20510 Washington, DC 20515 To Leader Schumer, Leader McConnell, Speaker Pelosi, and Leader McCarthy: e, the undersigned 1,577 organizations, call on Congress to take bold action to achieve the large-scale, sustained investments and anti-racist reforms necessary to ensure that Wthe lowest-income and most marginalized renters have an affordable place to call home. The Build Back Better Act is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to advance the HoUSed campaign’s top priorities and create foundational and lasting change by expanding rental assistance, repairing public housing, and investing in the national Housing Trust Fund. We strongly encourage all members of congress to support the policy priorities articulated below in the Build Back Better Act. We urge congressional leaders to ensure that as the Build Back Better Act advances in Congress, the allocation for housing investments through the House Financial Services and Senate Banking Committee remain at the highest level possible and that funding levels for rental assistance, public housing and the Housing Trust Fund receive no less than the amounts included in the bill approved by the House Financial Services Committee on September 14. Any cuts to the overall budget reconciliation package or changes to program levels must not come at the expense of proven solutions for households with the greatest needs. To help address America’s housing and homelessness crisis, the forthcoming economic recovery package must: 1.
