About this Event
Every year, the American Psychiatric Association (APA) honors mental health equity champion Bebe Moore Campbell through the MOORE Equity in Mental Health Initiative to champion access to culturally responsive care for all.
On Saturday, October 18, 2025, we’re bringing that mission to life again, this time in Philadelphia, with our Mental Health Community Fair - in partnership with the Public Health Management Corporation (PHMC) and Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP).
Local resource providers will be on site providing information and referral services, free health screenings and mental health-centered workshops for community members.
The annual APA MOORE Equity in Mental Health Community Fair has been held in partnership with local organizations and institutions of higher education since 2022 with the following objectives:
- Increase awareness about mental health issues experienced by underrepresented groups and dispel mental health misinformation through the lenses of practicing psychiatrists, advocates, and other mental health workers
- Provide education on steps individuals and families can take to promote mental health
- Increase access to resources that support the holistic needs of individuals experiencing mental illness and substance use disorders
- Share about APA's existing resources that support involvement in the care of families, friends and loved ones, as well as resources that increase access to care
Nearly 100 local organizations in three cities have joined us in providing on-site information and referrals, donations, and facilitated activities for health fair attendees such as Zumba, meditation, and mental health workshops.
