Description
I’ve taken some time to look at disparities in health outcomes in the Black community vs. every other racial grouping in the U.S. The numbers are pretty grim. And unfortunately, when we take a look at the mental health profile for Black people as a whole in the U.S., it’s no different. Black people are statistically more likely to suffer from depression, anxiety, PTSD, and they’re more likely to grapple with suicidal ideations. Yet we’re the group that is least likely to seek out help, and when we do, we’re more likely to receive poor quality care. In today’s podcast, I’m examining the reasons for these disparities, and looking at some ways in which we can begin to shift the needle on this troubling reality.
