Celebrating the LGBTQIA+ Community

May 31, 2022

Chartiers Center is a proud ally of the LGBTQIA+ community. As we celebrate love in all forms during Pride Month, it’s also important to bring awareness to the unique challenges faced by those in the community. Many in the LGBTQIA+ community experience harassment, discrimination, denial of civil and human rights and rejection.
 These types of inappropriate experiences can contribute to serious mental health conditions among LGBTQIA+ people. Let the month of June be a reminder that individuals who identify as LGBTQIA+ are human, and they deserve to be supported and treated like humans, too. Learn about the risk factors of LGBTQIA+ mental health at https://www.nami.org/Your-Journey/Identity-and-Cultural-    Dimensions/LGBTQI.

Psychiatric Rehabilitation Services are founded on the firm belief that people can and do recover from mental illness, including the most severe and persistent diagnoses. Psych Rehab providers define recovery not by a lack of symptoms, but by the presence of meaning and purpose in one’s life. Participants in Chartiers Center’s Mobile Psych Rehab (MPR) program choose the recovery goals they want to work on and then meet regularly with their MPR staff to learn, enhance, and practice the skills they need to reach those goals.

For many Veterans, the battle doesn’t end when they return home. The experiences of deployment, combat exposure, loss, and the transition back to civilian life can take a profound toll on mental well-being. While every Veteran’s story is unique, the mental-health challenges they face often share common threads: post-traumatic stress, depression, anxiety, substance use, and a lingering sense of isolation. The good news is that effective, compassionate treatment options exist—and awareness and accessibility have grown dramatically over the past decade.
