Below, you will find a compilation of valuable resources that can be shared widely to reach those who may be feeling isolated or hopeless.

BIPOC Mental Health Month 2025 TOOLKIT

Posted on July 2, 2025 by autocreate740

Always “News You Can Use” 🙂

“Knowing who you are starts with the Mind”, Bebe Moore Campbell

Each July, we honor the legacy of author, advocate, and trailblazer Bebe Moore Campbell by recognizing Bebe Moore Campbell National Minority Mental Health Awareness Month (also referred to as BIPOC Mental Health Month). Bebe Moore Campbell’s ability to tell impactful stories highlighting themes of racism, mental health, and family left a lasting mark on this world and is a foundation for much of the work that continues in support of Black, Indigenous, people of color (BIPOC) mental health.

BEST WEATHER APP and More

News you can use 🙂

If you haven’t already signed up for the How-To Geek Newsletter, my advice is that you should. It’s a fantastic resource that provides insightful updates and valuable tips on technology that can enhance your daily life.

I recently received my Newsletter and learned about two apps that you may find exceptionally useful. The first is a remarkable weather application, as reported by How-To Geek. You can explore it further at this link: AccuWeather. This app offers detailed weather forecasts, real-time alerts, and interactive maps, making it easier for you to plan your day based on the latest weather conditions. Whether you’re planning a trip, going for a run, or just want to stay informed about any changes in the weather, this app can help keep you prepared.

Staying updated with weather changes is crucial, and having a reliable tool at your disposal can make a significant difference in how you manage your activities. So, if you haven’t checked out AccuWeather yet, I highly recommend that you take a look!

Then there is the UV Lens app. Why is UV Index Important?

Understanding the UV Index is essential for protecting your skin and eyes from harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation. UV rays are a leading cause of skin damage, premature aging, and even skin cancer. Overexposure can also harm your eyes, leading to conditions like cataracts or photokeratitis.

JULY 2024 – BIPOC – Mental Health Support

Posted on July 1, 2024 by autocreate740

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.
