Welcome to the monthly QIO eNews. We provide you with the latest tools, resources, and learning opportunities that can be shared with your staff, residents, patients, and community members.
Each July, we honor the legacy of author, advocate, and trailblazer Bebe Moore Campbell by recognizing Bebe Moore Campbell National Minority Mental Health Awareness Month. Moore Campbell's ability to tell impactful stories highlighting themes of racism, mental health, and family left a lasting mark on this world and is a foundation for much of the work that continues in support of Black, Indigenous, and people of color (BIPOC) mental health.
This toolkit provides free resources to address health stigma, generational differences, mental health myths, and encourage meaningful conversations.
