Sharing Hope - Black Lesbian Edition

• Black adults are 20% more likely to report serious psychological distress than white adults
• The suicide rate among Black youth has been increasing faster than any other racial/ethnic group
• Only1 in 3 Black adults in need of mental health treatment receive it

That’s why we created NAMI Sharing Hope, a free safe space to have conversations on mental health and wellness— because people of Black and African Ancestry around the country deserve supportive and healing spaces by and for us to help our communities thrive.

NAMI Sharing Hope is designed to introduce discussions on mental health and wellness through a three-part community conversation series grounded in the sharing of sacred stories and guided dialogue on mental wellness and support.

NAMI Sharing Hope is an initiative created by Black and Brown communities for Black and Brown communities.
