Everyone experiences mental health struggles, and yet seeking care is still highly stigmatized in many communities. The goal of this month is to break the stigma of seeking mental health care across all communities and make accessing quality services easier. This is crucial because: ➡️ People who identify as being two or more races (24.9%) are most likely to report any mental illness within the past year than any other race/ethnic group. ➡️ Suicide is the second leading cause of death for Indigenous and Native Americans between the ages of 10 and 34. ➡️ Research shows that only one in three Black Americans who need mental health care actually receive it. Everyone is deserving of quality mental health care. #BIPOCmentalhealthmatters #minoritymentalhealth #mentalhealthmatters Source: American Psychiatry Association, SAMHSA
