It's a Man's World...
Town Hall Forum on Manhood & Mental Health in America
Location: Morehouse College, Walter Massey Leadership Development Center Auditorium, February 18, 2014, 7-9pm
Our kickoff event will be an interactive, activity-based, workshop for men and women who want to better understand the relationship between mental health and manhood in America. We feel there has been far too much stigma associated seeking help to manage life stressors, particularly in the African-American community. It is our hope that this event will not only educate and inform participants, but also motivate them to take the next steps toward becoming a healthier, more effective person.
