July is Bebe Moore Campbell National Minority Mental Health Awareness Month Background is gradiation of color from purple to red

July 2026

July is Bebe Moore Campbell National Minority Mental Health Awareness Month. Bebe Moore Campbell was an author and journalist recognized for her efforts to reach equity in mental health care for underserved communites. She cofounded NAMI-West L.A., and also sought to educate others on the role of historical trauma from racism and cultural stigma in preventing people from seeking mental health treatment.

Mental Health America has released their 2026 Minority Mental Health Awareness Month Toolkit in English and Spanish. It has free practical resources for individuals and organizations to help improve mental health in communities of color. It includes tip sheets, conversation starters, posters, and a resource list.

Of course July also brings our nation's 250th Independence Day. We wish everyone a safe and happy Fourth of July and an enjoyable summer.
