BIPOC/Minority Mental Health Needs More Diverse Care Professionals - How ADAA is Helping to Create Equality
Bernadine Waller, PhD, LMHC, Ceci Hinojosa, PhD, and Darius B. Dawson, PhD, in conversation with ADAA


July is Disability Pride and Minority Mental Health Awareness Month — a powerful reminder that mental health care must be inclusive, accessible, and rooted in cultural understanding.

People with disabilities often face added mental health challenges, from stigma to managing co-occurring conditions. Underserved communities may face systemic barriers to care and higher risks of mental health conditions due to discrimination, trauma, and lack of access.

       Human Connection Through Personal Stories
Personal stories inspire hope, raise awareness, and shatter mental health stigma. By sharing your journey — your challenges, your coping strategies, your path to seeking help — you can remind others they're not alone.

Speak up. Make a difference.
Share your story with ADAA. For Yourself. For Others. For Change.
