Nationwide — August is now Global Black Mental Health Awareness Month (GBMHAM) declares Black Therapy Central and other Black organizations to recognize that Black people, regardless of location, face similar mental health issues and self-hatred problems caused by the trauma of global systemic racism. The specific mental health needs of Black people around the world are distinct and unique, and therefore separate from other groups.
Black Therapy Central launches the campaign in conjunction with other Black organizations focused on the need for improved collective wellness and the restoration of humanity within Black communities. BTC asserts that to deal with Black mental health challenges and elevate above them, solutions must be presented that address the interrelated issues. The organizations will host various GBMHAM online and offline activities so that individuals, businesses, and families can directly and openly address challenges that impact Black mental health.
