On July 15th, join us in celebrating 2 years of the Black Healing Centre by gathering in the park for a day of community and health.

A 2 hour event where we create a safe space to talk about Black mental health and the power of food.

Calling MTL Black folks to come and join us on this communal day of care. Indigenous and people of colour are also welcome to join us!

We are so excited to be collaborating with @HIKEMTL for our first winter activity. Nature can be an incredibly healing tool to add our care tool boxes. And the days get shorter. We would love to encourage our community to find some time to connect to themselves and the community through nature.

An IG live conversation between our two of our collective members and Myrlie Marcelin, to help us expand our understanding of the different ways in which depression shows up in the lives of Black women.

To honour the revolutionary thinker and writer bell hooks, the BHC hosted a virtual vigil to allow people to gather and share work of hers that has inspired and or changed our lives, as a way to engage in communal care/healing.

Our collective hosted a screening of our short docuseries ‘(MY) Black Mental Health’, a video series that aims to shed light on the Mental health experiences of Montreal’s Black community.

The screening was followed by a curated panel discussion with various members of Montreal’s Black led organizations and collectives whose works are grounded in making mental health care accessible for Montreal’s African Diaspora. ⁣

For this workshop, BHC partnered up with the BCRC to offer group drama therapy to Black Seniors from July to August of 2021.

This short-term therapy group aimed to strengthen the sense of community among participants, by planting the seeds of a nascent or growing therapeutic journey for all group members. It was tailored for seniors from the Black community of Côte-des Neiges, who were feeling the isolation of living through a pandemic and wanted to connect with their peers.
