This July, in honor of National Minority Mental Health Awareness Month, I’m participating in the Moore Equity in Mental Health 5K Run, Walk, and Roll—and I’m inviting you to support a cause that’s deeply important to me.
Mental health challenges don’t discriminate, but access to care often does. Young people of color face greater obstacles when it comes to receiving the support they need: cultural stigma, lack of access to culturally competent providers, systemic barriers, and more. These disparities can lead to untreated mental illness, missed opportunities, and tragic outcomes that are preventable.
That’s why I’m lacing up—to raise awareness and funds for individuals and organizations that are working every day to close this gap. Your donation will directly support programs that:
Provide culturally relevant mental health services
Educate communities and reduce stigma
Train providers to better serve youth of color
Empower young people to speak up and seek help
Every step I take in this 5K is for the young people who deserve to be seen, heard, and supported. Help me turn awareness into action. Whether you can give $5 or $50, your contribution matters.
Let’s walk, run, and roll toward a future where mental health care is equitable for all.
💚 Thank you for your support. #MentalHealthEquity #Moore5K #RunWalkRollForChange
