June is Men’s Health Month, and one of the most important aspects of overall health is good mental health. For many reasons, black men in America face even greater social, societal & political stressors that can poorly impact mental health. However, various stigmas and barriers that exist, may often times prevent adequate treatment, access and/or attitudes towards obtaining mental health help for many males.
Please join the ladies of the Rho Mu Omega chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha, Sorority, Inc. and the men of the Lambda Gamma Gamma Chapter of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc., as we host a community health chat which will include a panel with leading healthcare, mental health and religious experts to discuss challenges, misconceptions and healthy ways in accessing and maintaining mental health, specifically in the African American male community.
