More Than Blues Depression and African American Women

Knowledge is the first step toward healing — and no one should face depression alone or uninformed.

Join social worker Shavonda Johnson for an engaging and informative session designed to deepen understanding of depression and the many ways it can present in everyday life. Through an interactive discussion, attendees will explore common signs and symptoms, learn how depression can impact individuals differently and gain insight into the emotional, mental and physical effects often associated with the condition.

This event creates a safe, welcoming space for honest conversation, education and awareness. Whether you are seeking information for yourself, supporting a loved one or simply looking to better understand mental health, this session will provide practical knowledge, meaningful dialogue and valuable resources to help break the stigma surrounding depression.

Attendees can expect:
• An overview of the different forms of depression
• Discussion on warning signs and behavioral changes
• Strategies for support, self-awareness and seeking help
• Interactive conversation and opportunities for questions
• Resources for continued learning and mental wellness support

Together, we can build awareness, encourage compassion and remind one another that healing begins with understanding.

All are welcome.
