About this Event
Healing doesn’t happen in isolation, and neither does change.
Join the Urban League of Westchester County, Inc. for From Hope to Healing, a powerful day of candid conversation, fresh perspective and real connection as we take on some of the most pressing mental health and substance use issues affecting our communities today.
The morning will center on mental wellness and racial trauma, bringing together leading voices to examine stigma, access to care, healing and the challenges facing individuals, families and communities.
At lunch, we are pleased to welcome Tracie M. Gardner, Executive Director of the National Black Harm Reduction Network, as our keynote speaker. Gardner brings decades of leadership in substance use, public health, harm reduction and advocacy to a conversation about what it takes to move communities from crisis and survival toward healing.
The afternoon will turn to substance use, harm reduction and recovery, including an engaging fireside-style conversation designed to encourage candid discussion, challenge stigma and explore approaches that can make a real difference.
From Hope to Healing is designed to do more than raise awareness. It is an opportunity to challenge thinking, strengthen connections and move the conversation toward solutions.
Come hear leading voices, exchange ideas with people doing the work, and leave with new insight, new connections and a renewed sense of what is possible.
