@rachelshapes Founder ๐๐บ๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ต๐ถ ๐ฅ๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ต๐ฒ๐น - โEducation and youth wellbeing is a deep passion of mine. Iโve experienced adverse childhood experiences, and I know how lacking culturally informed care is childhood trauma within Black communities. Black Mind is what I was looking for when I was young with severe mental illness, so to be seen by the yutes and for them to be investing in us is huge to me. It tells me we are placed exactly where we need to be right now๐งกโโฃ
