July is Minority Mental Health Awareness Month. At 1-800 Contacts, we’re committed to removing stigma from mental illness and helping support our associates and their families in all aspects of their wellness.
Mental resources and support are also of great need in our minority communities as many face different barriers when accessing resources and treatment, including lack of insurance, lack of diversity among mental health care providers, lack of culturally competent providers, and distrust in the health care system.
