National Minority Mental Health Awareness Month

Honoring Diversity. Promoting Healing. Empowering Voices.

July is National Minority Mental Health Awareness Month—a time to recognize the unique
mental health challenges faced by BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color)
communities. Cultural stigma, lack of access to culturally competent care, systemic inequities,
and historical trauma all contribute to disparities in mental health outcomes.

At JSU Counseling Services, we are committed to creating a safe, inclusive, and affirming space
for all students—especially those from underrepresented and historically marginalized
backgrounds. We understand that healing looks different for everyone, and we are here to walk
alongside you.

You are not alone. Your story matters. Your mental health matters.

Minority Mental Health Awareness Month
