Before mental health care was accessible, BIPOC groups created traditions to heal within their communities. Exploration of personal cultures and traditions is an important part of improving mental health.

BIPOC communities used spiritual practices, movement and rhythm, braiding and grooming, cooking and feeding each other, and storytelling as ways to heal while deepening connections.

The inherent wisdom found in these traditions can be expanded for greater impact. Taking time to reflect can lead to greater insights and greater healing.

Our team culture is what enables our employees to thrive. Kate Eldridge, our Program Director for PACT-Y, has been with us for over four years and can attest to the supportive environment we foster.

She initially joined CCBC because of the broad clinical programs and professional opportunities, but what has kept her here is the incredible support from supervisors and senior management.

Kate says the culture at CCBC instills confidence and makes employees feel appreciated and valued. "The leadership team at CCBC focuses on providing positive encouragement and recognition of employee accomplishments."

This supportive atmosphere is crucial, especially in the challenging field of mental health. CCBC invests in the well-being of its employees by organizing wellness fairs, offering paid memberships to the Calm app, and running multiple employee-led committees. Our employees also enjoy our employee resource groups such as our LGBTQ+ Affinity Group and our BIPOC Employee Affinity Group.

Kate also appreciates how her abilities and clinical experience were recognized when she was offered the position of Program Director. It's this kind of recognition and encouragement that makes CCBC a unique place.

However, Kate doesn’t shy away from acknowledging the challenges. "Working in mental health can be difficult; it’s important to emphasize self-care, utilize supervision, and maintain a healthy life balance," she advises. If you’re seeking a workplace where you’ll feel supported and valued, CCBC might be the perfect fit for you.

It's truly disheartening to hear about the current administration's cuts to the 988 crisis line services for LGBTQ+ youth. The 988 line is a vital lifeline, providing much-needed support. These funding reductions could limit access to critical services at a time when they are needed the most.

Our Mobile Crisis Intervention and Crisis Stabilization Unit is available 24/7 to help. If you or someone you know is in need of immediate support, please contact our Crisis Line at 800-660-4300.

Let's stand together to support and protect essential mental health services for all, especially our LGBTQ+ youth.

🤎🖤🤎July is BIPOC Mental Health Awareness Month 🖤🤎🖤

BIPOC Mental Health Awareness Month came to be in 2008 through the tireless efforts of journalist and author Bebe Moore Campbell. It's a time to bring awareness to the unique mental health challenges faced by the BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) community.

She recognized the need for large scale efforts to remove the stigma around mental health in BIPOC communities, and she recognized that healing is found within one's community.

Today we celebrate Juneteenth which marks the day that slaves in Galveston, TX learned they were free more than 2 years after the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation.

On June 19, 1865, Union soldiers arrived in Galveston, Texas, to announce the freedom of the last remaining enslaved African Americans. This day has grown into a celebration of freedom and resilience, recognizing the rich culture and contributions of Black communities. As we honor this important chapter in our history, we encourage everyone to learn more about the significance of this holiday in American history.

Here's a great resource to learn more about Juneteenth: https://nmaahc.si.edu/explore/stories/historical-legacy-juneteenth
