Nationwide — This BIPOC Mental Health Month, the conversation gets real. On Saturday, July 26 and Sunday, July 27, 2025, Flourish: A Community Mental Health Summit returns as a fully live, online experience dedicated to the mental health of Black, Indigenous, and People of Color. Created by Whitney Coleman, the summit is designed to educate, empower, and remind people of color that healing is not a solo journey it’s a community practice.
Hosted by Jade Clinical Services, the event invites therapists, advocates, healers, and wellness experts to share practical tools and powerful stories – all rooted in lived experience and collective care. It is more than just a weekend of workshops. It’s a call to rest, resist, and reclaim wellness on our own terms. Across two days, speakers, therapists, advocates, and artists will lead sessions that center culture, context, and care because BIPOC communities deserve mental health support that sees the whole story.
The summit will offer:
• Sessions on cultural identity, intergenerational trauma, burnout, plant medicine, financial trauma, and more
• Real talk on caregiving, grief, burnout, and breaking generational cycles on individual, group, and societal levels
• Restorative movement, mindfulness, and body-based practices
• Virtual space for reflection, resource-sharing, and connection
“Flourish is about giving people what the system often doesn’t: community-centered, culturally grounded, accessible support,” said Founder Whitney Coleman, LICSW, LCSW-C. “This is for people who are tired of feeling like they have to heal in silence or isolation. This is for the person who thinks there are no clinicians available who look like them or understand their experiences. Flourish was created so people of color don’t have to translate their pain to be understood. It’s about making space where our experiences, struggles, and healing paths are visible and validated.”
Registration opened June 16, 2025, with two different ticket options available. Attendees can join from anywhere – all they need is WiFi and a willingness to show up.
