A Wellness Revolution for Black Communities
Moving from surviving to thriving
ELEVATE BLACK WELLNESS IS A
FORCE FOR CHANGE
We're a Black-led movement mobilizing communities through Black Wellness Week, our signature annual celebration of partnership, community and power. We believe gathering around Black wellness each year is a radical act of collective care and ignites the momentum for systems change.
Washington State
Far more than a single week, we exist to transform the systems that determine whether Black communities survive or thrive across Washington state. We are a campaign to build prevention infrastructure, partner with institutions for accountability, and prove that collaboration creates lasting change.
We are powering a statewide movement for Black wellness.
From pandemic response to proclamation wins: See how co-founders Keith and Christina Blocker mobilized Washington communities and government partners, through Elevate Black Wellness, to spark a statewide movement.
Not everything that is faced can be changed, but nothing can be changed until it is faced.
