On Thursday, January 30, 2025, the Health Committee hosted a powerful virtual event titled “Sister, Prioritize Your Mental Wellness.” This important conversation centered on the mental health of Black women and featured Dr. Josephine Ridley, a licensed clinical psychologist and owner of Ridley Behavioral Health, LLC.

Dr. Ridley shared expert insight, real-life examples, and a comprehensive resource toolkit to support participants in prioritizing their own mental wellness. With thirty attendees present, the session offered both education and encouragement, highlighting the importance of ongoing mental health care in our communities.

This event was a timely reminder that taking care of our mental health is not a luxury—it’s a necessity.
