NOLA Black Mental Health Matters

We’re NOLA Black Mental Health Matters: a collective of Black mental health professionals in the greater New Orleans area committed to increasing access to quality mental health care within New Orleans’ Black communities while reducing the stigma associated with mental health.

Thank you to University of New Orleans MoMENtum, an organization supporting African American male students, for inviting us to lead this discussion about Black men’s mental health! ✊🏾
