In recognition of Minority Mental Health Awareness Month in July, NAMI Keystone Pennsylvania will be highlighting diverse experiences and perspectives to showcase how culture, race, and background impact mental health.

“Diversity has always been a priority of ours,” said Christine Michaels, CEO of NAMI Keystone Pennsylvania. “But recent events across our country have given all of us a reason to reexamine the systemic racism that exists in our society and how it impacts the mental health of African Americans and the racial trauma experienced by African American children, youth, and families.”
