Mental Health Equity: Building Strategic Partnerships to Improve Access to Mental Health Care and Reduce Suicide Risk in Black/African Ancestry Communities

As September is recognized as Suicide Prevention Month, it’s important to address that our nation is facing an alarming rise in suicide rates among Black/African ancestry men. Despite the essential role of mental health in overall wellbeing, members of Black/African ancestry communities often encounter significant barriers to accessing care, from stigma to a lack of culturally relevant services.

Join the National Alliance on Mental Illness's Community Health Equity Alliance initiative for a powerful Virtual Town Hall where a panel of mental health champions will explore how strategic partnerships and community-driven solutions can help improve access to care and reduce these rising suicide rates.
