EveryMind proudly launches the nation's first Women's Community Veteran Engagement Board to empower women veterans and strengthen community support. Learn how you can be involved in this intiative!
This July, EveryMind is recognizing the unique mental health needs and experiences of communities that often face more obstacles when it comes to care.
Mental Health Awareness Month for Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) is a time to reflect, learn, and support meaningful access to care for all. While mental health affects everyone, not all communities have the same opportunities to get the support they need.
Recent data from KFF (2022) shows that among adults experiencing any mental health condition, only 40% of Hispanic and 38% of Black adults received mental health services in the past year—compared to 56% of White adults (kff.org). Financial hurdles, cultural stigma, language access, and a shortage of culturally responsive providers often play a role.
At EveryMind, we believe mental wellness should be available to everyone—no matter where they live, what language they speak, or how they identify. This month, we’re highlighting the importance of listening, connection, and support that reflects the needs of all communities.
Follow us on social media for resources, upcoming events, and ways you can be part of the effort to ensure mental health care reaches more people, more effectively.
Women's CVEB Launch
We’re proud to launch the nation’s first women-focused Community Veteran Engagement Board (CVEB) through EveryMind’s ServingTogether program.
This new board will amplify the voices and priorities of women veterans and create a space for connection, advocacy, and community across the DC, Maryland, and Virginia region. Open to veterans, transitioning service members, caregivers, spouses, and allies—this board is for anyone looking to support and uplift women in the military-connected community.
📅 Join us for the inaugural meeting on Thursday, July 24, from 7:00–8:30 p.m. at EveryMind’s Rockville HQ or virtually.
We’re building something meaningful—and everyone is welcome.
