Today, we celebrate a pivotal moment in history, honor freedom and the African-American journey, celebrate resilience, and reflect on the ongoing fight for racial justice, community healing, and equity for all.
Our lives are shaped by our lived experiences and the lived experiences of our family and friends before us and around us. It is important for us to recognize the harm that historical trauma, inequities in the healthcare and mental healthcare systems, and the current political climate has on the mental health of Black communities.
In honor of Juneteenth, we want to uplift a few of the incredible organizations and resource groups that are working hard to help Black communities access the mental healthcare they deserve:
