👥 Limited to 40 men only

This Black History Month, the TRIF Park and Walk Program invites 40 men into a powerful, intentional space to explore what it really means to carry responsibility, expectation, pressure—and still lead from within.

Carrying It All is a conversation about mental health, emotional resilience, identity, and internal leadership—rooted in Black history, lived experience, and the realities of men today.

This is not therapy.
This is not a lecture.
It’s honest dialogue, practical tools, and brotherhood.

🗣️ Panel Discussions – real conversations on mental health, strength, and leadership
🛠️ Interactive Workshops – practical strategies for emotional regulation, clarity, and growth
🎶 Music & Culture – grounding the experience in Black heritage
🍽️ Food & Refreshments – community built around the table
🤝 Connection – a room where men don’t have to perform, just show up

• Black men and immigrant men navigating pressure, purpose, and responsibility
• Fathers, professionals, leaders, and men in transition
• Men who are “strong for everyone else” and need space to reflect and recharge
• Men ready to lead themselves better, not just others

This gathering honours Black history by addressing a present-day truth:
strong men still need space to be human.
