July is National Mental Health Awareness Month, a time to acknowledge the unique mental health challenges many in our communities face. For communities of color, caring for our mental health can come with distinct barriers, from cultural stigma and financial strain to a lack of providers who truly understand our lived experiences. On top of everyday stress, we often navigate generational trauma, cultural expectations, and much more.

Through it all, healing is possible, and you don’t have to go through it alone. Whether you are seeking therapy, community support, or just someone who gets it, there are resources created with minority communities in mind.
