September is National Suicide Prevention Month and an important time for mourning those we lost to suicide.
According to the@congressionalblackcaucusRinging the Alarm on Black Suicide Report, the number of Black Youth attempting and completing suicide is rising and that is certainly cause for action.
Though the plight of our community has never been heavier, it is important to gently call one another in and lean into our African roots to facilitate healing.
Join me September 2nd in collaboration with The Chicago School’s Institute on Adolescent Suicide Prevention as we discuss the risk and preventative factors of Black suicide, implications for psychology, future directions and more.
