Welcome to the North Carolina Black Mental Health Alliance. Our mission is to empower our families, communities and healthcare providers to decrease the stigma associated with mental illness through innovative programming, trainings, outreach and referral services.
Our purpose is to promote physical and mental wellness, advocate for the application of culturally relevant wellness techniques and to establish a network of healthcare providers and specialists committed to the wellbeing of families and communities.
Our goals include: 1) developing a network of providers committed to servicing our consumers, 2) provide trainings and workshops to educate providers and the community about best practice methods with black consumers, 3) provide referrals for consumers of available providers, 4) provide consultation services to providers and healthcare professionals, 5) develop an online directory of resources, providers, and recent publications.
