About the Organizers
Darkness RISING Project is a mental health 501(c)3 non-profit organization created to help those in the Black community begin conversations with their family, coworkers, and friends about their mental health and emotional well being. We accomplish this by partnering with mental health providers and/or mental health educators to create events, seminars, and sessions where the intersection between mental health and the arts collide.
Women Beyond Measures is an organization dedicated to the personal growth of women during the stages of motherhood. We provide women with the necessary skills and knowledge to overcome the changes motherhood can do within our lives. Our services cover a wide range of areas a woman may need support in. Our services include mental health support, job preparation, entrepreneur: brand development, faith support and personal development:life coaching.
