JULY: National Minority Mental Health Awareness Month

nationalminoritymonthInstagramPost

In the United States, Minority Mental Health Awareness Month is observed every July to bring awareness to the unique struggles racial and ethnic minority groups face. In the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic, racial and ethnic minority groups have had a harder time finding treatment for their mental illnesses and substance abuse problems.

This month, North Central Jersey Association of Realtors® will provide tools and resources to address the stigma about mental health among racial and ethnic minorities.

To eliminate mental health stigma in minority communities, we encouraged everyone to visit resources that emphasize the importance of spreading awareness about how to prevent and dissipate mental health stigma.

While there are many emergency Mental Health hotlines, if you or someone you care about is having thoughts of suicide, call 911 for immediate help.
