Black Mental Wellness Workshops & Program

Whether it's navigating school, work, social media, or predominantly White spaces, these experiences can leave us feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, angry, or unsure of what to do next, but we don't have to navigate it alone.
Join the Black Mental Wellness team for an honest, supportive conversation inspired by our Healing Racial Stress Workbook for Black Teens. Together, we'll talk about what racial stress looks and feels like, how to recognize it in ourselves and our children, and ways parents and caregivers can start meaningful conversations with young people in their lives. We'll also explore practical ways to cope, heal, and build resilience as a community.
This interactive panel will explore the unique challenges faced by helping professionals and caregivers, particularly within Black communities where cultural expectations, systemic inequities, and the pressure to remain strong often create additional barriers to self-care and healing. Panelists will share practical strategies for recognizing early signs of burnout, establishing healthy boundaries, fostering resilience, and creating sustainable practices that support long-term well-being.
Returning to the community after incarceration often involves navigating significant challenges that can impact mental health, stability, and long-term success. Many formerly incarcerated individuals experience mental health concerns, substance use, and chronic stress while also navigating barriers such as limited access to behavioral health services, housing instability, unemployment, and fragmented systems of care. When left unaddressed, these challenges can increase the risk of recidivism.
Freedom to Heal: Improving Mental Health Access and Reducing Recidivism Through Community Support and Healing, explores the critical intersection of mental health. community reintegration, and justice involvement. Through an engaging discussion, panelists will identify some of the most common mental health concerns experienced by returning citizens, identify barriers to accessing quality mental health care while under community supervision, and discuss how untreated mental health conditions can influence compliance with parole or probation requirements and increase the likelihood of recidivism.
