The Los Angeles Department of Mental Health has partnered with Los Angeles County Department of Mental Health to fulfill the African American Family Mental Health & Disability Awareness Project – an initiative of the Access for All Underserved Cultural Communities (UsCC). This project aims to integrate mental health and disability awareness into infant and mortality prevention efforts in Los Angeles County.

As part of this project, we are excited to offer free 90-minute community workshops on African American Family Mental Health & Disability Awareness. These workshops are for organizations and community members to deepen their understanding of the impact of disabilities on perinatal mental health among Black/African American populations in Los Angeles County and empower through storytelling, all while cultivating community connections.

If you are interested in hosting this workshop for the community members you serve, please email [email protected].
