Black Moms for Better Mental Health

Seeking and securing mental health services and supports remains a challenge for the black community. Our community experiences barrier, such as, limited access, racism, culturally- rooted stigma, language and unemployment. For African, Caribbean and black Canadians, the struggle for mental health is often a silent one, with misunderstandings within the community. It is also challenging finding therapists of colour or organizations that cater to the needs of the black community.

We hope our fundraising effort will help local black moms get the support they need.
