LGBTQIA+ Mental Health Symposium
This event will actively engage diverse communities in promoting mental health awareness, fostering well-being, and supporting access to services while nurturing community connections. Specifically, the LGBTQIA+ Mental Health Symposium addresses the unique challenges faced by the LGBTQIA+ community, such as elevated rates of depression, anxiety, and suicide. This symposium offers a secure and inclusive environment for LGBTQIA+ individuals and allies to gain insights into mental health, exchange experiences, and access resources. By combating mental health stigma, empowering attendees, encouraging help-seeking behaviors, dispelling myths, and enhancing access to culturally relevant services, the initiative aims to mitigate disparities in mental health outcomes.
