Celebrating Juneteenth: Embracing Freedom and Mental Wellness Today, we honor Juneteenth, a pivotal day in American history marking the end of slavery. On June 19, 1865, enslaved African Americans in Galveston, Texas, finally learned of their freedom—more than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation. Juneteenth is more than a historical milestone; it’s a celebration of resilience, strength, and the enduring spirit of Black communities. It reminds us of the ongoing journey towards equality and justice. The legacy of slavery and systemic racism has profound effects on mental health. Recognizing and understanding this history is essential for healing and growth. As we celebrate Juneteenth, we are committed to supporting mental health initiatives and continuing the fight against systemic inequalities. Together, we can foster a more inclusive and supportive environment for everyone. #Juneteenth #MentalHealthMatters #BlackHistory #FreedomDay #CommunityWellness #EndTheStigma #InclusiveWorkplace

Happy Memorial Day! From Sahara Behavioral Health 🇺🇸

The thing I think of so vividly this month is how incredibly important it is for those of us in the helping fields to make sure we are caring for ourselves too. It's all too easy to be so focused on everyone else that we can let our tanks run empty. Thank you to all our peers in the field.

We are hiring! positions are open at our Chandler and Glendale locations. For more information click the link in our bio or email cover letters and resumes to info@sbharizona.com.
