WHO WE ARE AND WHAT WE DO
The Black Mental Health Society is an organisation that aims to create more awareness on the mental health struggles not spoken about, but faced in the black community today.
WHAT WE DO
START THEÂ CONVERSATION BY CREATINGÂ A SUPPORTIVE AND INTERACTIVE ATMOSPHERE
As the problems and importance with regards to having stable mental health is not a topic spoken enough about in the black community, the goal here is to create a platform where members of our community can willingly and openly share their past or present struggles, whilst knowing they're supported by others going through similar situations.
MAKE AN EFFORT IN CONNECTING BLACK INDIVIDUALS TO THERAPISTS WHEN NEEDED
Our mission is not just to increase awareness and start the conversation about the importance of mental health within the black community, but also to connect black individuals with professional therapists through donations received.
HOST EVENTS IN ORDER TO EDUCATE THE COMMUNITY
One of our main focuses as an organisation is to host, as well as to speak at events, both in person and virtually on not just the importance of stable mental health in the black community, but how it impacts our day-to-day lives.
