BlackWellness Network (BWN) is a digital community dedicated to improving the mental, emotional, and physical health of Black and Brown individuals across communities of color. BWN is the driving force behind the annual Breaking the Stigma: African American Mental Health Symposium, the Teen Mental Health Summit,  and the Mind Health Ambassadors program.

We understand the unique challenges Black and Brown communities face and strive to create an online space where everyone has access to quality services including mental health. But racial disparities in healthcare persist..
