OUR INTENTION

community, care & connection

colour in mind is a non-profit collective created in response to the systemic effects of race-based stressors that negatively impact the overall health & wellbeing of women and gender diverse people of colour.

black women in particular are experiencing an alarming increase in mental health challenges, chronic illness and trauma despite facing a deep gap in access to culturally-affirming care, resources and community support.
