For Us Nation partners with NAMI, On The Ground Level The theme for Minority Health Month 2025 is "Advancing Commitments to Eliminate Health Disparities," encouraging individuals, organizations and communities to work together to improve the health outcomes of minority populations. https://www.nami.org/Get-Involved/Awareness-Events/Bebe-Moore-Campbell-National-Minority-Mental-Health-Awareness-Month/ For Us partners to bring NAMI on the ground level - Tahyira has signed up to work with the organization to curate events targeting young black professionals.   In many marginalized communities, mental health challenges have long been silenced—buried under stigma, isolation, and lack of access. Today, a powerful shift is underway. Brave voices are rising. Stories are being shared. At NAMI, we see it every day: one conversation can spark hope, build trust, and start the healing process. #BlackMentalHealthMatters | #AfricanImmigrantStrong For those of us in Black/African Ancestry communities, being open about how we're really doing can be a struggle. There are stereotypes to overcome; pressures to be excellent; fears of being perceived as vulnerable or spiritually weak. To compound these challenges, We have been disproportionately impacted by a global pandemic; we are constantly confronted with the trauma of racism and police brutality in the media; and our community continues to be one of the fastest growing but most poorly understood. As a result, we must find better and more accessible ways to start talking about our individual and communal wellness.

The Therapy for Black Girls Podcast is a weekly conversation with Dr. Joy Harden Bradford, a licensed Psychologist in Atlanta, Georgia, about all things mental health, personal development, and all the small decisions we can make to become the best possible versions of ourselves. In 2008, the U.S. House of Representatives announced that July would be known as Bebe Moore Campbell National Minority Mental Health Awareness Month. This resolution would honor her work as an advocate for mental health awareness, particularly in the Black community. The goal for the month is to enhance public awareness of mental illness among minorities.  In keeping with this sentiment and Mrs. Moore's legacy, Therapy for Black Girls takes the opportunity to dig deeper into broadening the conversation around mental health and mental illness each year in July. To kick us off for our month-long commemoration and raise awareness, we've created an oral history detailing the creation of Minority Mental Health Awareness Month.  In this week's episode, I'm joined by Dr. Linda Wharton-Boyd, the convener of the Bebe Moore Campbell National Minority Mental Awareness Task Force, and Albert R. Wynn, a former U.S. House of Representatives member. Dr. Boyd and Congressman Wynn were instrumental in creating Minority Mental Health Awareness Month after Bebe Moore Campbell's passing in 2006. Our conversation explores the process of bringing Minority Mental Health Awareness Month to life, the impact Minority Mental Health Awareness Month has had over the years, and Bebe Moore Campbell's continued legacy.

On this episode of Forever Blooming, our hosts Jordyn & Insha bring back a previous guest so they can dive into the complexities of minority mental health. Welcome back Crystal! She gives her unique perspective on mental health as an South-Eastern Asian, Jordyn as an African American person, and Insha as an Indian. Each collectively talk about their similarities and differences as minorities, how each community is viewed by society, and how this has effected their relationship with mental health. It was a much needed conversation to dismantle the often white perspective on mental health that is portrayed in society and the media.

Welcome back to BeREAL! This week, Ednesha is continuing her conversation with the BeWELL team about Minority Mental Health Month. Joining her once again is Dr. Victoria Rodriguez, Suhailey Núñez, Divya Robin, Teanika Chamberlain, and Tamika Covington. The conversation picks up where last week's episode ended: about police involvement in mental health emergency calls. The women discuss how it feels to be BIPOC in a space that is not affirming of their identity. This does not mean that they want to be surrounded solely by those from a similar background. Instead, it means they feel comfortable in spaces where they do not have to explain culture, slang, etc. This comfort diminishes when police become involved. Ednesha retells times when she had to bar police from going into her office when she made mental health emergency calls about her patients. She would also escort them to the ambulance if need be, never leaving them alone in a space that was not culturally competent.    Divya changes the conversation by discussing how therapy should not be seen as a last resort. This originates from the ‘tough it out' mindset that was discussed in last week's episode. Tamika discusses how mental health challenges are inevitable in one's life, so why not start therapy right now before they strike versus after. The women discuss how preventative care is emphasized in medical care, so it should be just as important in mental health care.   To close off the episode, the women begin discussing the finances involved in mental health treatment. Ednesha brings up how there should be financial incentives to enroll in social work school after the pandemic due to the influx of mental health issues. She brings up her own student debt and how it is hard to live off a therapist's salary in a place as expensive as New York City. She also discusses the challenges that come with putting a price tag on your services. Many therapists question if their services are worth enough money, and if there are people who are actually willing to pay. Ednesha assures clinicians of color that there are patients who wants to see them, because their work is so important.    Thank you for tuning into BeREAL this week. Be on the lookout for an all new episode next week. In the meantime, make sure to tune into last week's episode which included even more discussion of Minority Mental Health month.    For more information on BeREAL (our mental wellness podcast), BeWELL (our therapy practice in New York City and Hoboken, NJ), or any of these amazing clinicians visit the links below:   To schedule a therapy appointment text BeWELL to 484848 today    www.beher-now.com    Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Be.WELL.Psychotherapy/   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bewell.psychotherapy/

Podcasts can't provide professional advice. For help: http://bit.ly/TOSKresourcesFor trans-specific crisis resources: http://bit.ly/TOSKTransResources   Trigger Warnings: Sexual assault, violence against trans individuals, childhood trauma, transphobia. Welcome to episode eight of The Oh Shit Kit! Today we are joined by Jonah Spector, who is studying for his Masters in Social Work and who has done a ton of amazing advocacy work with the trans and gender minority community! Jonah also hugged Barack Obama, so we're super jealous. Apparently Maddie has also been in Obama's general vicinity, but NOT LEORA. She's super pissed about being the odd one out, don't get her started.   Trans mental health is today's topic, and it's a super important one because trans people are at a higher risk for a variety of mental health problems. However, having programs in place to provide support to trans people can help to lessen some of the risks associated with being a gender minority.    Tools: Come out to one friend who is likely to be accepting if you need support and courage before coming out to others. Use resources such as word of mouth or online resources to find trans competent doctors or mental health professionals when possible. If you are a privileged member of a marginalized group, be the person who speaks up for others, but be careful not to speak over others and take their voices away. Get a trans competent therapist to help you through unexpected challenges during your transition journey. Look for online or in-person support groups where you can talk to others who can understand and validate your experiences. Try searching “trans resources [the name of your city]” if you don't know where to start. To be a good trans ally; educate yourself rather than expecting trans people to educate you. Try adding your pronouns to your email signature and social media, and telling people your pronouns when you meet someone new. Let people speak, and don't out anyone.  If you want to start a group or advocacy movement, JUST DO IT! Decide on a time and place, and open it up to others on social media. You can create a whole lot of change with minimal effort. Offer to be there for people in your life who might be afraid to go to the doctor. If you are looking for a trans competent therapist: ask questions about if they have experience working with trans people AND if they have experience working with trans people who have similar concerns to you. If you don't have access to a therapist who has experience working with trans folks or people with similar issues to yours, find a therapist who is willing to learn. 

If we want to be inclusive leaders at work and in our communities, we also need to be allies and advocates for those who experience mental illness.In this episode, we are joined by two guest experts and advocates who are using nontraditional means to raise mental health awareness. First, we hear from Dr. Jonathan Singer, Associate Professor of Social Work at Loyola University Chicago and President of the American Association of Suicidology who leverages social media to make suicide and mental health research accessible. Next, we connect with Dior Vargas, a Latina Feminist Mental Health Activist who is working to make mental illness awareness more inclusive through a grassroots initiative called the People of Color and Mental Illness Photo Project.Want more behind the scenes materials?

We sort of took a detour from our original plans for this episode, as Cathy found out that July is Minority Mental Health Month, and with so much going on in the current new climate, we wanted to be on the right side of things by offering to shed a little light on the struggles that minorities have to deal with when it comes to mental health, why it's WAY more difficult for minorities vs Caucasians, etc.We also talk about the recent heat wave that hit the US, the challenges that came with making our National Ice Cream Day video (visit our Instagram or Facebook to see the video) and we take a moment to share a listener email.This episode had a LOT of material that had to be cut, but that just means we'll have stuff for our Patrons!
