We are a mental wellness community comprised of mental health educators, counselors, therapists, psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and mental health advocates dedicated to bringing awareness and promoting the needs of the Black community. Many mental wellness providers work in silos. Our team started CCBMW to find intentional ways to build community in San Diego. Our goal is to create a space where providers can co-create knowledge through mutual interactions, share stories and resources, and grow connections.
