Our department’s Anti-Racism, Diversity, and Inclusion (DMH-ARDI) Division is raising awareness and appreciation for multiple, month-long commemorations taking place this and next month.
We encourage you to check out the below articles on our Cultural Traditions & Connections space to engage with some of the cultural awareness themes observed in March.
Please also take a few minutes and join us in lifting up our collective voices by supporting, learning from, and celebrating these cultures and communities being recognized this month:
- Bisexual Health Awareness Month
- Brain Injury Awareness Month
- Deaf History Month
- Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month
- Gender Equality Month
- Greek-American Heritage Month
- Irish-American Heritage Month
- National Women’s History Month
- National LGBTQ Health Awareness Week
By recognizing and appreciating the history, resilience, and advances made within these communities, we can collectively and positively impact our society and wellbeing.
If you know of any Non-Profit, Community/Faith-Based Organization, Directly-Operated Program, or Contract Provider that would benefit from a presentation about cultural diversity, inclusion, and/or competency, please submit a request to our Speakers Bureau at this link.
