Resources

The Resource Series aims to bring support to those from marginalized populations, impacted by oppressive systems, or have ever felt like they just needed help.



Adult Mental Health

NAMI-CA, 2018

This graph shows the prevalence of mental illness within adults in the U.S.


As a Social Worker, I thought it would be fitting to start this series off with mental health and general resources. Every post will highlight a specific need, trend, community, or population.

Since I am based in California I have added California and Bay Area specific resources. If you live outside of California please check your county and/or city website.
