HMH has been bustling with visitors who tour our sites, learn about our programs, and meet our wonderful staff and participants! We were joined by Peter Gee from Little Tokyo Service Center, Camillia Lui from Public Health Institute & Alcohol Research Group, and Jay Kim from Orange County Asian and Pacific Islander Community Alliance — all bringing their individual forms of expertise. We also had the pleasure of touring social worker leaders through the Taiwan Fund for Children & Families, who were interested in U.S. social work practices. It is always a privilege to be able to show off the work we do and make new connections, whether locally or internationally!

Our CONNECT program hosted an incredible Pride month event, We Grew Anyways, in the Orchard Alley Community Garden last Thursday, June 25th. Guests were invited to design planters, and take home a seedling to nourish and care for. Much gratitude to our generous food donors: Elbow Bread Bakery (), Banh by Lauren (), She Wolf Bakery () and Liberty Farms (). Additionally, a special thanks to the Elements House () team for donating the seedlings, as well as to their social practitioner, who is also an herbalist, for providing medicinal education and re-potting instructions for our seedlings. And finally, we must thank Ayo Harrington and NYCParks/GreenThumb, for graciously opening Orchard Alley Community Garden to us. We are so grateful to all who attended and made the event a huge success. Happy Pride to all!
