We are so happy to announce the launch of our Well-Being as Practice Support Initiative, providing support to those most directly impacted, fighting for our communities on the ground.

We launched a weekly space led by clinicians to process the impact of harm and violence our communities are facing.

Black migrants face compounding harm at the southern border due to anti-Blackness and punitive asylum policies. Migrants deserve safety, not criminalization.

We honor the resilience of migrants who are forced to leave everything behind in pursuit of safety, dignity, and survival.

Mental health care must rise to meet this reality: with compassion, humility, and deep understanding.

Discrimination isn’t just personal, it’s systemic. Immigrant young adults may face racism and xenophobia daily, and it shows up in their mental health.

As ICE raids ramp up in LA, Chicago, and beyond, we’re reminded that our work isn’t just care work. It’s resistance.

We don’t get to choose the moment, but we can choose to show up.
