  • Mental Health In The Black Community
    Apr 3 2024
    Diminished access to mental health care is one of the many ways systemic racism has affected the Black community — but things are starting to change. “Mental illness is a pervasive issue in the African American community, with many negative social and economic impacts,” explains Owoo. She states that factors driving mental health disparities among African Americans include:
    • distrust of the medical system
    • institutionalized racism and oppression
    • trauma caused by racism and violence
    • healthcare inequities
    • lack of access to quality mental health care
    • cultural competency gaps among providers
    • the lack of diverse mental health professionals
    • the common stigma of seeking help within the Black community
