WAANT Program (Fall 2022)
Please join the WAANT project, a new partnership between UIC and two community partners: The Center for Immigrant Resources and Community Arts-CIRCA Pintig (CP) and Digital Tapestries.

Based at the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC), the new and exciting Wellness through Asian American Narratives and Theater (WAANT) project will bring together students, faculty and staff, and community activists to explore topics related to Asian/Asian Americans (A/AA) and mental health/disability.

To promote Asian mental health/disability justice, in Fall 2022 WAANT will incorporate theatre, filmmaking, and PhotoVoice activities through a series of story collecting workshops. The  project has three main objectives.
  • Objective 1: Produce theatrical performances, podcasts, film clips, and a PhotoVoice exhibit that highlight true-life narratives of A/AA experiences around mental health and wellness.
  • Objective 2: Share narratives of A/AA experiences with mental health and wellness through creative arts.
  • Objective 3: Increase awareness within the A/AA community, on and off campus, of available mental health services and supports.

In order to participate you must be part of the UIC Community. Please take a few minutes to complete the following survey questions if you wish to enroll in the WAANT program.  

If you are not part of the UIC Community but wish to be involved please contact: roosheyh@uic.edu or ginger@circapintig.org for more information.
