BIPOC | Black, Indigenous, and People of Color
National Minority Mental Health Month, also known as BIPOC Mental Health Month, was founded in 2008 by American author, journalist, and teacher Bebe Moore Campbell. Her mission is to bring awareness to the unique struggles that underrepresented groups face regarding mental illness in the United States.
Access to care, cultural beliefs, and stigma are some of the most significant barriers to mental health care for the BIPOC community. The first step to making a lasting impact is learning how culture, race, and background impact mental health.

BIPOC communities are significantly more likely to develop mental health conditions, and one of the major barriers to mental health treatment is access and the need for understanding mental health support.
Mental health conditions affect people of every race, ethnicity, and nationality. This #BIPOCMentalHealthMonth, help raise awareness of BIPOC mental health.

It's #BIPOCmentalhealthmonth, and today we invite you to learn how to talk about race, ethnicity, and indigenous heritage.
Using accurate language is so important when it comes to combating bias, prejudice, discrimination, and marginalization.
