A mom is feeling overwhelmed (who else can relate?). When a spiritual leader in her community notices, he provides support. That’s the plot of our community novela, “Reaching Out for Support.” Read the full illustrated story here: https://takeaction4mh.com/resources/community-novela/ (link in bio)

July is BIPOC Mental Health Month 🖤🤎💚 Community and connection can be lifelines for BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and people of color) folks, who face systemic inequities that impact mental health. This month reminds us to advocate for mentally healthy environments, better access to care, belonging and inclusion.
Remember, taking care of yourself is important too. Self-care and mental wellness aren`t selfish.
