The global observation of this loss of life from a historical, racial, oppressive, policing system has and continues to have a significant impact on the mental health and physical health of all Americans witnessing these actions and responses. We invite all members of the counseling community to join us as we understand the need and purpose of a space for community and collective mourning as we continue the work of pursuing social justice. fall chapter town hallPresented by: Dr. Rachael Goodman and Dr. Shon Smith
