July is Bebe Moore Campbell National Minority Mental Health Awareness Month. Bebe Moore Campbell was born on February 18, 1950, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. She was a critically acclaimed author who wrote fiction books depicting the devastating impacts of racism. In 2003, Campbell wrote a book titled Sometimes My Mommy Gets Angry. This children's book tells the story of a child being raised by a mother with a mental illness. Sometimes My Mommy Gets Angry won the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) Outstanding Literature Award. She was a member of the National Alliance for the Mentally Ill (NAMI) and a founding member of NAMI-Inglewood. On November 27, 2006, Bebe Moore Campbell died at the age of 56 from brain cancer. On June 2, 2008, a bipartisan and bicameral Congress formally recognized July as Bebe Moore Campbell National Minority Mental Health Awareness Month, also known as BIPOC Mental Health Awareness Month.

In Latine and Hispanic communities, mental health is often a stigmatized topic. This stigma and the challenges that come with immigration, adapting to U.S. culture, and generational trauma may make it harder for someone to maintain their mental well-being. As part of our celebration of Bebe Moore Campbell National Minority Mental Health Awareness Month this July, we’ve added new resources for BIPOC communities to our website.

What is "whole-person care"? It is healthcare that considers the many different factors that impact one’s health and wellness. For example, your physical, mental, and dental health all play a vital role in your overall quality of life. As we move closer to merging with Clinica Family Health (our longtime community health partner), we are thrilled to meet our clients where they are by offering them better access to physical and dental health services. Whole-person care matters because it recognizes that our health is multi-dimensional, just like our community. #WholePersonCare #Health #Wellness
