Mental Health Awareness Month Spotlight ?? Throughout generations, due to systemic racism, repeated racial trauma and harms done to Black, Brown, and other communities of color in the United States have had lasting effects. As a result, these communities often have poorer physical, mental, and economic conditions compared to the average white American community. For Mental Health Awareness Month, BHPN would like to uplift our REPAIR framework which highlights the importance of implementing community-led racial healing models, which are essential to the work of racial healing. Explore the framework to learn about the role institutions can play in reconciling harms and pursuing deeper solidarity toward racial healing. https://lnkd.in/gwxqVRfP #RacialHealing #Solidarity #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth #MentalHealing #RacialHealingModels #RacialTrauma
