July is Minority Mental Health Awareness Month. Here are some stats to consider from RTOR.org:

* In 2019, suicide was the second leading cause of death for Black or African Americans, ages 15 to 24. For Native Hawaiians/Pacific Islanders ages 15-24, suicide was the leading cause of death.
* Over 25% of Black youth exposed to violence have proven to be at high risk for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
