This event is hosted by Black Emotional and Mental Health Collective.
Heart Space is a healing circle that provides a space for Black folks to decompress and connect. This Atlanta Heart Space Healing Circle centers BEAM's What I Wish My People Had Known, The Psychiatric Green Book: A Guide for Black Folks as a tool for learning, reflection, and community conversation. Together, we'll explore how Black people can navigate psychiatric crises and mental health systems with greater knowledge, care, and support while honoring the long tradition of Black communities creating pathways to healing outside of systems that have often caused harm. Using the Green Book as our guide, participants will discuss practical strategies for supporting themselves and their loved ones, share experiences, and deepen their understanding of community-based care.
