From Surviving to Thriving
The year 2020 was a time of loss, grief, collective pain, and significant life changes for so many of us. It is especially important during these times that we all prioritize our mental health and wellness.
​
As such, Black Mental Wellness launched our first Black mental health and wellness conference with the theme, From Surviving to Thriving. This conference is dedicated to uplifting the Black community and aims to emphasize the importance of naming our range of feelings, while remaining empowered to heal during these emotionally challenging times.​
We hosted more than 300 attendees at our inaugural launch of the Black Mental Wellness Virtual conference, which included mental health experts, community advocates, social influencers, educators, spiritual leaders, clinicians, allies, panelists, and a community of individuals, couples, and families.
The conference included:
-
11 interactive virtual sessions focused on mental health and wellness in the Black community including parenting, trauma, education, relationships, college student mental health, maternal mental health, and more
​
-
Virtual networking through the Hopin Platform
​
-
Black Parade Virtual Expo featuring small Black Businesses​
