  • The Hub Student Center (map)

If Black Lives Matter then Black LIFE Matters. Your personal health is important in the fight for equity and justice. This workshop is focused on the primacy of quality health practices (mental, physical, social, sexual) to survive and thrive in the 21st century/3rd Reconstruction. Whether you're on the frontlines or supporting the fight your health matters, your life matters.
