Raising awareness about the needs for mental healthcare for and among Latino communities alone is not enough. We must turn awareness into knowledge and knowledge into actions.

On World Mental Health Day, October 10th, the World Health Organization will, for the first time ever, host a global online advocacy event on mental health.

I’m disgusted that Breonna Taylor was innocently killed while she peacefully slept in the “safety” of her home. I’m terrified for Black men and women in the South who go for a leisurely run through “neighboring” communities, only to be preyed, hunted and killed as Ahmaud Arbery was. I’m heartbroken that Aiyana Jones was brutally deprived of a longer life. I’m angry that George Floyd was blatantly asphyxiated by officers in uniform. I’m beside myself that Robert Muller was seemingly lynched in 2020. And I’m saddened by Riah Milton’s senseless murder and the phobia that drove it.
