As Mental Health Awareness Month comes to a close, we remain committed to increasing awareness and erasing the stigma associated with mental health issues because everyone deserves access to respectful and culturally appropriate care.
Week 5's focus is on building support for mental wellbeing in the LGBTQIA+ community. Inclusive families, schools, and societies can all work together to do their part. Family love and support can help to reduce the risk of depression, substance use, suicide, and other issues. Schools and workplaces can create more understanding, supportive, and inclusive environments. Social and peer support can act as a lifeline to show love and support to help LGBTQIA+ people feel appreciated and accepted.
Most importantly, LGBTQIA+ and all people deserve to be acknowledged, supported, and celebrated for exactly who they are.
To
LGBTQIA+ communities
You belong – You matter –
Your mental health matters!
