Every year around this time, I make it a point to find out what is available for Mental Health support for the BIPOC community. Bebe Moore Campbell was an advocate who understood the importance of focusing on the issues and needs of this community in order to make a way for resources. Caring is sharing, which I hope you will do with your loved ones, and by passing this information on. There is even more to gain by delving into the resources available.

Every October Breast Cancer Awareness Month is brought to our attention with charities, news, and support.
This year I am introducing the Reach to Recovery app, which you can download, or you can become a volunteer as a survivor of this enormous challenge. Oftentimes when we can speak with someone who has traveled and survived a difficult health challenge, it gives us strength and hope for our own challenging journey.
Look at the YouTube video below and decide for yourself how to take steps in getting support by reviewing what is available.
For details and to download the app click the link below.
