Trillium Health Resources recognizes monthly awareness events sponsored by local or national organizations and agencies. By helping to publicize these events, we bring attention to these causes to help reduce stigma and share the need for behavioral health services to address them.
As a managed care organization, Trillium coordinates services for mental health, substance use, and intellectual and developmental disabilities in 26 counties in eastern North Carolina. We work within our local communities to help everyone reach their fullest potential by also promoting programs, initiatives, and supports outside of contracted services.
June Awareness
PRIDE Awareness
Pride Month is celebrated every June in tribute to those involved in the Stonewall Riots, a major tipping point for the gay rights movement that occurred in 1969. This year we recognize the 50th anniversary of the first major tradition held in New York City in June 1970. Memorials are held during this month for those members of the community who have been lost to hate crimes or HIV/AIDS. The purpose of the commemorative month is to recognize the impact that lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender individuals have had on history locally, nationally, and internationally.
