Minority Mental Health Month is a nationwide effort developed by Mental Health America to “shed light on the multitude of mental health experiences within BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Color) communities and others that face disproportionate inequities due to systemic barriers and historical adversity.”

Over the month of July, ACA will be dedicated to bringing awareness to the barriers BIPOC communities and others experience in getting mental health care and the role professional counselors play in supporting them while also working to address and amend the issue.
