Black History Month: Leaders in Behavioral Healthcare, Mental Wellness, Advocacy

February 9, 2021: Recovery Resources Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Council Member Michael Vucek shares the impact artist Kirsty Latoya has on the world. She uses her art to address the complexities of mental health in the black community, often channeling her own hurt and sadness into her work to create art people can relate to on an emotional level.
