The pandemic of 2020 is often described by such overused but apt words and phrases as “an unprecedented era” and “challenging times.” Many of us in our Korean American community find that our ongoing struggle to adapt to the new culture and language of our adopted homeland is exacerbated and amplified by these additional challenges posed by the pandemic, threatening the mental, psychological, and physical well-being of the families of our community. In response to our community’s needs, KOWIN LA (Korean Women’s International Network of Los Angeles) is honored and privileged to host a virtual conference, especially during its 20th year anniversary. The aspirational goal of this conference is to add to the lexicon of the pandemic words of hope and direction, like “healing,” “advocating,” and “navigating.” We at KOWIN LA sincerely hope that you and your loved ones can attend our virtual conference and gain new insights that will empower you and put you on a path to healing.
