The series kicks off with an amazing talk on Sept 2 at 1 EST.By a woman we call “Moon”
This is what she says of her talk:
Of her presentation entitled “Trauma Translated” Moon says,”Apart from policy development and assessment, there is a responsibility and dire need for stakeholders to carve deliberate space for communities to feel heard, validated and included in the formations of and considerations in the mental health system. Through this workshop we aim to highlight and give back the narrative to disproportionate and Minority communities around the harms that come when systems do not authentically connect with them on grassroot levels.”
