ABSW Metro DC Chapter

May is Mental Health Awareness Month 💚

The Association of Black Social Workers – Metro DC Chapter stands in solidarity with our community to uplift the importance of mental wellness. For far too long, stigma has silenced conversations around mental health in the Black community. It’s time to break that cycle.

Seeking help is not a sign of weakness—it is an act of strength, courage, and self-preservation. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or simply not like yourself, you deserve support, understanding, and care.

Let’s continue to create safe spaces where we can speak openly, check in on one another, and normalize prioritizing our mental health. You are not alone, and it’s okay to ask for help.
