July 2024 | Virtual Emotional Emancipation Circle 101 8 Week Intensive

Greetings Family!

This is a registration form for our upcoming virtual Emotional Emancipation Circle (EEC). Running from July 24th to September 11th, our 8-Week EEC 101 Intensive will meet once a week on Wednesdays at 7 - 8:30pm EST.

Emotional Emancipation Circles (EE Circles, EECs) are self-help support groups designed to help heal, and end, the trauma caused by the root cause of anti-Black racism: the centuries-old lie of White superiority and Black inferiority.


Originated by Community Healing Network, and developed in collaboration with The Association of Black Psychologists (ABPsi), EECs are liberatory spaces in which Black people share stories to deepen our understanding of self-worth, our relationships, and our communities. Together, we learn essential emotional wellness skills to help us be our best as individuals and as a people.

Watch this video for an introductory video for our EECs.  All sessions are virtual.

 

"EE Circles are catalysts for reclaiming our human dignity as people of African ancestry." –EE Circle Participant

 

In recent surveys, EEC participants reported what they like most:

"Being able to share experiences with others and be unapologetic about talking about racism."

"I particularly enjoyed the sense of community and the infusion of African philosophy, culture and values. I always left the EEC feeling more relaxed and purposeful."

"Being connected to other black people who want to heal...."

"The comradery, sharing experiences, learning more about myself as an African woman."
