Brothers, We’re back with the Jabali Project, a men’s space that builds community, supports mental health, and offers edification through food, conversation, and shared experiences. Our philosophy for the Jabali Project is strength through unity: when we come together, we can best create the life we aspire to today. If you’re a man who desires community, conversation, or connection, join the Jabali Project, where we intentionally build each other up through accountability and relationships. Will you be there? #grouptherapy #mentalhealthmatters #blackmenbuild #detroitevents #blackpower by @blackmenwrk
Join us for another session of the Jabali Project! We are excited to bring you another compelling and community building conversation! Come for food, fellowship, and reimagining a new world through conversation and community. Black men are four times more likely to complete suicide than their white counterparts. Part of the reason for that disparity is not having access to community and not having a space to express one’s self as a black man. Sharing our experiences helps to connect us to who we are and who we ought to strive to be. Tap in and spread the word! Let’s grow the Jabali Project and expand this impact! RSVP HERE! ⬆️ by @blackmenwrk
We are back again on the fourth Wednesday of this month! Can we expect to see you tomorrow ? #mentalhealth #mensmentalhealthawareness #mentalhealthmatters #communitybuilders #politicalactivist by @blackmenwrk
June is Men's Mental Health Month, a time to spotlight the importance of creating safe spaces for Black men to decompress, recenter, and heal from pain or pressure. Black men often bear heavy burdens, battling inner wounds and struggles that they conceal behind a smile or a laugh. The Jabali Project, founded by Black Men Work in partnership with We The People MI, seeks to bridge the gap between Black men and the inner turmoil they face. Its mission is to foster community, empower leadership, advocate for political change, and promote mental health awareness among Black men. Join us next Wednesday for an inspiring event led by our expert facilitator @justinbanksspeaks and hosted by licensed social worker @drjay117. Food and drinks will be available—so come hungry for connection and conversation! Will you be there? by @blackmenwrk
