Brother to Brother was developed in collaboration with Black Mental Wellness trainees to amplify the voices of Black men. This initiative highlights the personal stories of Black men who have experienced mental health concerns and/or life stressors, and how they found a pathway to healing and triumph.
Throughout the month of June we will share the vulnerable stories of Black men on our Black Mental Wellness platforms (Website, social media, UA-cam). Our hope is that these vulnerable conversations will help to reduce the mental health stigma, and empower Black men to seek the help and resources they need to heal.
