What We Do
We Heal Ourselves with Love and Empowerment (WHOLE) is a community-based program in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Our programming recognizes the diversity of experiences within the Black community and is created to meet the variety of existing mental health needs in the Black community. We aim to break down the barriers to receiving mental health treatment, to offer contextualized resources for people of color, and to provide support to communities of faith. Through our groups, training, and free community events, we strive to bridge the gap in accessible service.
