Mental Health in Marginalized Communities
While mental health concerns are universal, those of us with marginalized identities (such as BIPOC, LGBTQ, disabled, veteran, Spanish-speaking, or other demographic characteristics) bear the weight of additional mental health barriers.
What is Mental Health Awareness Month?
While it’s important to shine light on mental wellbeing year-round, May is Mental Health Awareness Month, so it’s a great time to reflect, seek support and educate others. While we believe that everyone should feel empowered to care for their mental health, we know that stigma, cost, and lack of access can deter those struggling from getting the help they need.
