Reshaping Perspectives and Narratives around Mental Health, Disability, and Neurodivergence

“Reshaping Perspectives and Narratives around Mental Health, Disability, and Neurodivergence within the AANHPI Community” features Vietnamese queer, autistic storyteller and speaker, Dennis Tran.
Dennis is a social impact storyteller, DEIA speaker, and consultant, who is on a mission to build a more neuroinclusive and accessible world, where people with disabilities and neurodivergence can live a meaningful and fulfilling life.
He holds a degree in Public Health Policy from UC Irvine and he is the creator and host of his podcast, Asian Lifing, which traces his journey navigating disability and late neurodivergence with mental health challenges.
As a queer, partially blind, late identified adhd-autistic neurodiverse Vietnamese American living with glaucoma and C-PTSD, Dennis is using the profound knowledge and mindset shifts he has gained through his late diagnoses towards neurodiversity inclusion. He advocates for others in the disability space and those in marginalized communities to ensure authentic representation, inclusiveness, and accessibility for all.
