Get ready for BIPOC Mental Health Month with new tools and resources

Mental Health America is excited to announce the release of its 2023 BIPOC Mental Health Toolkit to commemorate July as Bebe Moore Campbell National Minority Mental Health Awareness Month, also known as BIPOC Mental Health Month.

This year's theme, Culture, Community, & Connection, focuses on how surroundings impact mental health and overall wellness. While Black, Indigenous, and people of color populations have faced and continue to experience disproportionate amounts of trauma, displacement, oppression, and systemic racism, BIPOC communities thrive with culture, community, and connection. Learn more in these new and free resources.

Share MHA resources for Pride Month

Spread the joy of Pride this month with Mental Health America's social media graphics. Pride Month is a time for the LGBTQ+ community to celebrate their identities and their community’s fight for social progress, but this year has been difficult with the mental health impact of hate toward the LGBTQ+, and especially trans, community. Mental health risks decrease when a person can live as their whole self and is supported by loved ones and the broader community. Whether you are a part of this community, an ally, or just curious, our new Pride resources, including webinars and podcasts, highlight affirming identities and spaces.
