A sense of belonging and inclusion in communities is vital for well-being and mental health. BIPOC individuals may frequently feel othered or as if they are tokenized in spaces in which their identities are not embraced or reflected. Culture, community, and connection are pillars that support and uplift BIPOC communities facing oppression and systemic racism.

💟 July is National Minority Mental Health Awareness Month. This month serves as a crucial reminder of the unique challenges that racial and ethnic minorities in the United States face regarding mental health. 💟 Despite the growing awareness of mental health issues, disparities persist. In 2020, fewer than one in every two African American adults received the mental health care they needed. These statistics highlight the importance of continuing our efforts to break down barriers and create equitable access to mental health resources for all communities. 💫 Let's use this month to amplify voices, share resources, and support initiatives that address these disparities. By working together, we can improve the mental health outcomes of minority communities. 💫 #MentalHealthAwareness #MinorityMentalHealth #HealthEquity #BreakTheStigma #SupportMentalHealth #InclusiveHealthcare #CommunitySupport #MentalHealthMatters #EndTheStigma

Today, on National Child & Youth Mental Health Day, let's reflect on the impact of social media.

Join us as we strive to foster a healthier online environment. Let's be the change. 💙  #MentalHealthMatters #BeTheChange #ActuaForChange

The official theme for this year's World Mental Health Day is 'Mental Health is a Universal Human Right'. This global campaign aims to engage individuals, communities, businesses, and policymakers to accelerate efforts related to mental health, recognizing that a person's mental health impacts their ability to exercise other rights such as access to support, education, right to work, social participation and overall quality of life. To make meaningful progress on this global campaign, we need to collaborate with users as equal partners in designing integrated systems that go beyond diagnosis, develop needs-based solutions that are community-focused, and promote holistic well-being. Today and every day, let us uphold mental health as a universal human right and build a healthier world free of discrimination and stigma. #MentalHealth #WorldMentalHealthDay
