📊 Bridge Care Connections — Stat of the Day
Stat:
Among adults reporting poor mental health, 50% of white adults receive general, specialty, and mental health care, compared to 39% of Black adults and 36% of Hispanic adults.
Why this matters:
People of color face major barriers to mental health care including cost, stigma, language barriers, and the lack of culturally competent providers. Because of these barriers, many people struggle in silence without the support they deserve.
Our mission:
Bridge Care Connections is committed to connecting communities of color with culturally informed mental health resources, advocacy, and support systems that help close the gap in care.
Healing should never depend on your zip code, your race, or your income.
