Emotional Emancipation (EE) Circles are self-help support groups in which we, Black people (individuals that identify as being of African descent), work together to overcome, heal from, and overturn the root causes of the devaluing of Black Lives.

In Emotional Emancipation (EE) Circles, we come together to:
Share our stories and feelings, always respecting the humanity of each EE Circle Member
Deepen our understanding of the impact of historical forces on our emotional lives, our relationships, and the well-being of our communities
Free our minds and spirits from the lies and heal from the historical and continuing trauma of racism
Tell ourselves a new, liberating, and empowering story about who we are as people of African ancestry
Revitalize ourselves and our relationships with each other
Learn and practice essential emotional wellness skills to help us be at our very best— as individuals and as a people
Develop strategies to address the root causes once and for all. To join an Emotional Emancipation Circle, select a date from the calendar below.
