About the Event
People of all races, ethnicities, genders, identities, orientations, abilities, ages, and classes can be at risk for having suicidal thoughts and mental health conditions. According to the Health & Human Services Office of Minority Health, African Americans are 20% more likely to experience serious mental health problems than the general population. In addition, recent attention has brought to light that Black men and Black boys are attempting and completing suicides at much higher rates than in the past. Unfortunately, many people struggle to reach out for help, in part because of the stigma associated with having a mental health condition and with seeking therapy, which can lead to lethal results.
