About this event

The Black Men's Mental Health Conference is a multi-city tour bringing awareness and education to mental health care for black men. On this tour, we will share stories, provide access to resources, and equip communities with the necessary tools to create systems of support to ensure that black men have the best access to mental healthcare. Our tour will feature events aimed to better understand the social determinants of mental health and the specific psychological issues facing black men through panel discussions, mental health experts, resources and more. We invite you to join us on our journey to celebrate and curate this important conversation around mental health in black communities, travel city to city, and work together to galvanize collective action to ensure a healthier future for generations of black men.
