Thank You!!
The goal of the forum was to provide an opportunity
for meaningful community engagement to introduce practical trauma informed and outcome driven methods and services. With a
goal to improve the health and wellness of African American children and their families, as well as the larger community.
We realize that a stronger, thriving African
American community improves the health of the community and the society as a whole.
