Black Men’s “Alive and Well”

520 9th Street Suite 102
Sacramento, CA 95814

The purpose of this group is to provide a safe and honest forum for Black men to come together twice a month and discuss issues related to being a Black man in America. We will check in, get current and talk about things that we may find difficult to discuss in other settings. We will experience the unique therapeutic value of one Black man helping another. We will discuss topics including but not limited to fatherhood, intimate relationships, sexuality, stereotypes, anger, communication, loving ourselves and our people, employment, education, socializing and our own internal dialogue.

Inaccessible Accessibility: Addressing Mental Health Disabilities in Higher Education

A recent Mental Health America (MHA) survey showed that 70% of students with mental health disabilities in higher education did not register for disability accommodations. Only 20% said it was because they did not want them. Student awareness of accommodations, difficulty navigating disability services, and fears about the perceptions of others and interactions with professors are among the reasons students do not access the support and accommodations they deserve.

CASRA 2021 Fall Conference

The theme for the Fall Conference is "Making Connections". How we connect with our world and those in it, happens in many different ways. We are focusing on how reducing harmful behaviors, being employed, and having a sense of belonging all contribute to our feelings of connection and worth.

If you have any questions about the Fall Conference,
contact Joe Ruiz at [email protected].
