Sharing Hope is a three-part community conversation series in which sacred stories are shared through community conversations prompted by videos and guided by a facilitator who helps the participants understand support strategies and community resources.
It is a community-driven initiative that embraces and celebrates cultural identity and empowerment. It is a place for Black/African Ancestry and immigrant communities to gather, listen and support each other on the path to mental wellness and healing. These conversations will be facilitated at The Black History Museum of Virginia. The September conversation will be guided by Vanessa Cowles, the Director of Culture & Community and Mindfulness guide. The November conversation will be guided by MJ Gray, the Programs Coordinator + embodiment coach.
