exists to meet the needs of Aurora’s increasingly diverse population which includes refugees and immigrants from around the world. We recognize the unique challenges and needs of people navigating a new culture, learning a new language, and trying to access care here in Colorado. To that end, our Cultural Development & Wellness Center provides the highest quality of care to clients, centered on five main pillars: Customer Service, Access, Comprehensive Services, Outcomes, and Value.”
“The Asian Pacific Clinic provides a variety of services to clients who represent a wide range of mental health issues from brief, transitory conditions to acute, chronic psychiatric symptoms and disorders. Services are tailored to address the needs of immigrant and refugee status clients.” “Issues involving cultural adjustment, such as language, values, customs, and behavioral differences are often intimately associated with the client’s chief complaint.
Our current enrolled clients are primarily (but not limited to) Asian persons from Bhutan, Burma, Cambodia, China, Japan, Korea, Laos, Taiwan, Thailand, and Vietnam. As a specialty clinic, our behavioral health care services are typically provided in the clients’
native language with bilingual staff who share the same cultural background.”

Colorado Lotus Project
"The Colorado Lotus Project is funded by the Colorado Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) Circle. The Colorado AAPI Circle, in partnership with the Colorado Health Institute (CHI), created the project to uplift the unique voices and experiences of
Asian American and Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islander (AANHPI) people living in the state.
The Colorado Lotus Project involves a thorough analysis of data on
AANHPI communities and delves into deeper insights, integrating first-person storytelling to underscore strengths and disparities within the community. This dual approach aims to call attention to an essential need for better data while fostering a nuanced understanding of the diverse experiences within these communities. The goal is to achieve a more equitable allocation of resources and to tear down the idea that AANHPI communities are one monolithic group.”
