LftS: Mental Health Disparities

8/9/2018

Last show we defined mental health and what makes someone mentally healthy. We talked about it being more than just the absence of illness but also the presence of balance and stability. This show we will be talking about a report produced in November of 2017 regarding some of the disparities and issues surrounding mental health in the Black Community. While I don’t agree with most comparisons being used for serious strategic planning, they do serve the purpose of providing context to numbers when the context is needed. As we continue on into Mental Health Awareness month we continue to hope that you will take everything you’re getting from the network and start a conversation around mental health in your circles. Conversations that spark action and changes to the world around you in a positive way.
