Supporting the mental health needs of racialized young people
 

Presented by SickKids CCMH Learning Institute

Anti-Black racism is so embedded in the policies and practices of institutions that it has been functionally where racism becomes normalized and rendered invisible. Black professionals carry the unique burden of managing their own experiences of chronic racial trauma while simultaneously trying to help others navigate these same systems. Addressing Anti-Black racism can be a risk, leaving Black professionals feeling isolated and misunderstood. Chronic exposure to racial based traumatic stress, which experts equate with post-traumatic stress disorder, has a devastating impact.

Focusing on the relationship between mood management and the mind-body connection, sessions offer a combination of breathing, movement, postures and mindfulness. Participants will explore the physical, mental and emotional benefits of a yoga practice.

Ontario Technical University's Centre on Hate, Bias and Extremism, in collaboration with Kimberly Cato, RP / CEO and Founder of True Roots Counselling Services and Kara Hart, Director of Program Development and Sustainability at John Howard Society of Peel-Halton-Dufferin, presents Hate Crime in Halton – A Community Perspective.
