Nashville's Black Community 

​

Locally, Black Mental Health Village is an inclusive grassroots organization of Black people in Nashville working to mobilize Black Nashvillians regardless of class, national origin, immigration status, age, sexual orientation, sexual identity, and gender expression.

 

Black Mental Health Village serves the community by creating support groups, an online community centered around Black mental, conferences, community discussions that center mental health in the Black community, and community action for Black Nashvillians, allowing them space to respond to their own experiences.

 

Because Black Mental Health Village understands how important it is to have a therapist that understands your identity and your past experiences, we are working to highlight culturally competent and patient-centered Black licensed mental health clinicians for Black Nashvillians seeking providers.

​

We are also working to build collaborations between different organizations in Nashville that play a role in advancing the whole health of Black Nashvillians. We hope to advance our agenda for our community through transformative grassroots engagement, strategic partnerships, and influencing local and state policy.
