If you joined us live or watch the archived stream for Well Beings Tour: Lowering Barriers: Race, Income & Mental Health, please help us improve the development of future content and events by taking this brief survey.
Power shapes our wellbeing. Race and income can have a much greater impact on our health than medicine or doctors. For young people, that means the systems and environments that surround them affect how they will view and access mental health support systems. With inequitable and discriminatory structures in place, finding ways to destigmatize mental health and create pathways for access can be difficult to navigate. Join PBS SoCal and KCET as we explore how we can lower these barriers on an individual, community and structural level.
