Today, we’re honoring the National Day of Rest for Black Women, and yes, BWHI is observing it too.

Rest is not a luxury. It is care.

It is necessary for our mental, physical, and emotional health.
Black women carry so much for our families, our communities, and our work. Today is a reminder that we deserve pause, softness, and restoration just as much as we deserve progress and productivity.

So today, we’re logging off, slowing down, and choosing rest.

We encourage you to do the same, in whatever way feels accessible:
Take a nap.
Step outside.
Silence notifications.
Say “not today” to anything that drains you.

The work continues tomorrow.
Today, we rest.

International Women’s Day is a global recognition of women’s power. For Black women, that power has always been expressed through action.

Across communities, Black women have led prevention efforts, reimagined survivor support, and transformed advocacy spaces that once excluded us.

Ujima stands in that tradition, advancing culturally specific strategies that move us beyond response and toward lasting change.

Nobody talks about the mental load of being “the strong one.”

The strong one doesn’t always get asked if they’re okay. They often hold the vision, the family secrets, the emotions, the backup plans, remembers the birthdays, sends the check-ins, keeps the peace, and swallows their own overwhelm.

And sometimes? The strong one is tired.

Being strong doesn’t mean being unbreakable.
It doesn’t mean you don’t need rest.
It doesn’t mean you don’t deserve softness.

Even the strong one deserves:
• to be poured into
• to be checked on
• to fall apart safely
• to say “I need help” without guilt

If you’re the strong one… I see you. You don’t have to carry it all today.

💜 February is Teen Dating Violence Awareness Month

Teen dating violence is more common than many realize — and it can take many forms, including emotional, digital, and physical abuse.

📊 Nearly 1 in 3 teens experiences dating abuse.
📱 Abuse can include controlling behaviors, constant monitoring, and pressure — not just physical harm.

Every teen deserves to feel safe, respected, and valued in their relationships.

Stalking is a public health issue! Stalkers create severe and chronic stress for their victims that often manifests in physical pain and illness. Medical providers should screen for stalking and help connect patients experiencing stalking to appropriate resources for safety planning.https://www.stalkingawareness.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/SPARC-Stalking-Screening-for-Healthcare-Guide-11.25.pdf
