As we enter year 5 of our organization, we felt it was time to refresh our mission and objectives. While still very much grounded in the why we started, it’s important to revisit our purpose and our focus for our community.

We look forward to a year of building, raising more awareness, and working with like-minded individuals & organizations within our community.

Let’s do a mental health check-in - how are we feeling? Are we doing okay? Are we eating okay? Are we looking after ourselves?

Checking in with yourself & closest family and friends can be so important especially during the winter months.

01/10/2025

We know it has been a little quiet on this side - our team needed a much deserved break followed by a regroup to iron out our biggest year yet - year 5 of our organization.

Our purpose remains the same, to build awareness & advocate for mental health within racialized communities. Our team is committed to always providing sound resources & curating events that showcase impact & community care.

If you’re looking to collaborate with us, feel free to send us a DM. Stay tuned on a powerful year to come!
