With Asians accounting for 60% of the world’s population, representing over 25 countries, it is difficult to make any generalizations or aggregate any statistics on a group that is so large and diverse.  In terms of the populations that have immigrated to the United States, there is a deep diversity dependent on what generation, and from which countries, and what socioeconomic status people arrived to this country.  For service providers and caregivers, it is important to take stock of one’s own identity in relation to issues of privilege and oppression and also in terms of the identities of the populations being served.
