The intersectionality of their identities can lead to compounded mental health issues, such as increased rates of anxiety, depression, and suicidal ideation.

Celebrating Minority Awareness Month also involves reflecting on the challenges that minority groups have faced historically and continue to encounter, such as discrimination, social injustice, and economic disparities. It's a time to advocate for healthcare policies and practices that promote equity, celebrate diversity, and ensure that all members of society have the opportunity to succeed and thrive.
