The mission of this conference was to focus on the healing of Black Men as an alternative way of thinking about community building, empowerment and healing.

The objectives:

  • The link between the intergenerational cycle of pain and trauma and black men’s present beliefs and behaviors that act as self-imposed barriers and effects their relationships with other men, women, children and the community.

  • Why it’s important to allow black men to heal from past pain and trauma to enhance their ability to overcome both systemic and self-imposed barriers.

  • How emotional health can be a pathway to empowerment, responsibility and community healing.
