The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality reports that racial and ethnic minority groups in the U.S. have less access to mental health services and are more likely to receive lower-quality care. Poor mental health care access and quality of care contribute to worse mental health outcomes for racial and ethnic minority populations.
Use the social media message below to help educate your community about the importance of improving access to mental health care for racial, ethnic, and other minority populations.
