July is Minority Mental Health Month. Mental health conditions do not discriminate based on race, color, gender or identity. Anyone can experience the challenges of mental illness regardless of their background, but background and identity can make access to mental health treatment much more difficult. Bebe Moore Campbell National Minority Mental Health Awareness Month was established in 2008 to start changing this.

Thank you, IDHS! Last week, the Illinois Department of Human Services (IHDS) announced that the 988 Su***de & Crisis Lifeline in Illinois will continue to provide mental health support services for LGBTQIA+ youth, after the federal government ended funding last month for specific support on the 988 Lifeline.

“Unequivocally, in Illinois, we stand side by side with each member of the LGBTQIA+ community, including transgender, nonbinary, and gender nonconforming youth. If you need help and you call 988, you’ll be met with the compassion, competence and respect," said Governor JB Pritzker.

Each month in Illinois, the LGBTQIA+ youth subnetwork of the 988 Lifeline supports more than 1,600 calls and 600 chats or texts. In Illinois, 988 contact centers are funded by IDHS. Upon receiving word that the Trump administration was shutting down this subnetwork, IDHS worked to ensure that the 988 Lifeline could continue to provide the LGBTQIA+ community free, confidential, and culturally competent care.
