There is a crisis unfolding in real time and we have to be willing to name it clearly. Black women are being taken from us, not by strangers, not by the unknown, but by people who called them family. People who shared their beds, their dinner tables, their last names.

Beyond Burnout: Building Emotionally Intelligent Leaders is a space created for the advocates and organizers who give everything to the movement and deserve support in return. This is where we build our capacity to embody what sustainable leadership actually looks like.

Black Maternal Health Week exists because the fight is not over. Because the data is still devastating. Because too many of us have sat in hospital rooms, birth centers, and waiting areas and felt invisible. Too many of us have held grief that never made the headlines.

Our healing lineage didn’t begin in Europe—it began in Africa. Before diagnoses, before clinical language, before systems that pathologize our pain—there were traditions rooted in community, spirit, land, and rhythm.

Some news stops you in your tracks. Today might be one of those days. When the world feels this unstable, it's easy to stay glued to your phone, refreshing, absorbing, bracing without realizing how much your body and mind are taking on.

This is what healing can look like. We gathered 45 Black women in Atlanta for Tapping Into Tenderness—and Black women came ready. Ready to feel, release, and be held.

Autism looks different on everyone. The differences may show up subtly or recognizably. It looks like the child overwhelmed by bright lights and loud sounds in a grocery store, trying to stay regulated. The adult masking their needs just to get through a workday.

We know Black autistic folks are too often overlooked, misunderstood, or misdiagnosed. This virtual Heart Space Healing Circle is for Black folks on the autism spectrum and the people who love and support them. Visit beam.community/events to register.

Trans Visibility Day isn’t just about being seen—it’s about survival, safety, and dignity. It’s about access to affirming mental health care, housing, community, and the right to exist without violence or erasure.

For a lot of trans people, today carries both pride and pain. Kansas just made it legal to strip trans people of valid ID, restrict where they can exist in public, and sue them for simply being visible. Celebrating trans lives means protecting them too. Save this and share it!

Nobody taught us how to talk about mental health. We were taught to push through, pray about it, and keep it moving. But what happens when someone we love is struggling with something bigger than willpower?

This April, we're creating space for the conversations and healing that our community has always deserved.

Our healing was never waiting on a license. For generations, it was passed down through our communities. Our ancestors were therapists long before the world had a word for it.

We've all seen the 'I'm leaving social media' post…followed by a new post three days later. Between the news, the posts, and the debates…it's a lot. Your nervous system feels every bit of it. You don't have to carry the weight of the world through your phone.

We’ve said it time and again— money is a mental health intervention. The Parent Support Fund exist to ease the disproportional burdens that Black and marginalized parents carry every day. Direct support, straight to the families who need it most.

Imagine going to bed not knowing if the lights will be on tomorrow. Not knowing if the hospital can treat your loved one. Not knowing when your next meal is coming. This is the reality for 10 million Cubans right now.

Healing Justice starts with you being resourced. BEAM’s Healing Justice Training scholarships are now open for community organizers and movement leaders.

”Unh unh! Is that AI?!” Let’s talk about it. Cultural wisdom has taught us to be skeptical with most things that have the potential to advance society. Historically when new things arise, something else declines. We want to address these things. Together.

Let’s be real! Although AI comes with convenience, it is NOT care. Relying on the use of Artificial lntelligence comes with its own set of consequences, and the impact hits harder in Black and marginalized communities. We want to raise awareness on a few things, in case you are using AI.

Black women have long shaped the evolution of healing and mental health care — even when their contributions were overlooked or excluded from the mainstream story. Without Black feminists- bell hooks, Barbara Smith, Demita Frazier, Dr. Moya Bailey, Dr. Alfiee Breland-Noble, Dr. Thema Bryant,

Grief and anxiety can live in our bodies in ways words don’t always reach. Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT), also known as tapping, is a gentle practice that uses rhythmic tapping on specific points of the body while acknowledging what we’re feeling. This can help calm the nervous system, reduce

Rest is not a reward. It is a necessity! Black women deserve rest. Misogynoir says Black women are not worthy of it, can’t have it, and don’t deserve it. We reject that. This Women’s History Month, we honor the countless ways Black women have shown up in the world. As caregivers, nurturers, and

Caregivers, who is taking care of YOU?! Caregiving is powerful. And so are you. As we move throughout the year developing communities of care and building maps to guide us through our own caregiving experience, we invite you to join us next week for our upcoming Heart Space Healing Circle

It’s back. And the timing matters. As Black families face rising costs, political instability, and shrinking systems of care, parents are carrying the weight first—often in silence. Mental health doesn’t exist without material support, and right now, relief is critical.

We are living through a lot right now—collectively and personally. In a time shaped by uncertainty, violence, and grief, it’s okay to feel worn down *and* still reach for moments that help you breathe. Joy doesn’t betray our grief. Grief doesn’t cancel our joy.

One of our goals is to reimagine how families heal. That looks like making time in the day to reflect on how we show up for the people we love, and who we consider family during these times. Today we are sharing these reflective questions that we extracted from our new Family Care Map tool.

In hard times, it matters to know who we can lean on. Whether that is family we’re born into, family we choose, or both— it is important to be able to identify who is there for support.
