Each July, National Minority Mental Health Awareness Month is observed in order to bring awareness to the unique struggles that racial and ethnic minority communities face in receiving mental health in the United States.

One of Change Matrix’s projects, the Mental Health Technology Transfer Center Network, has created a list of resources specifically for the month of July. Check it out today!
