Mental health is just as important as physical health, but many people in minority communities face challenges in getting help. Stigma, language barriers, and lack of access make it harder for some to find the support they need.

✔ Talking About Mental Health – Some people feel ashamed or afraid to ask for help. But mental health is part of overall health, and it’s okay to talk about feelings and seek support.
✔ Support in English and Chinese – CCHRC provides mental health information in both English and Chinese, making it easier for everyone to get the help they need.  Learn more on the CCHRC website.
✔ Talk to Your Doctor – Some mental health services need approval first. Talk to your Primary Care Provider for a referral to see a mental health specialist if necessary.
Community Support – CCHRC connects individuals with trusted community organizations offering mental health support.

No one should feel alone. If you or someone you know needs help, reach out to a doctor or a trusted resource. Everyone deserves good mental health care!
