Umoja Health Wellness and Justice Collective

At Umoja Health, Wellness and Justice Collective we are working to create a community in which people who have experienced personal, systemic, generational and historical trauma can collectively move through the healing process. Umoja offers a multifaceted system of supports to address the Social Determinants of Health in historically low-wealth and marginalized communities, especially Black communities. All services are culturally-aligned and trauma-informed.

3. HOPE Curriculum - Umoja offers dynamic and interactive Diversity, Equity and Inclusion trainings for businesses, schools and other organizations wanting to combat systemic racism and participate in collective healing.

1. HOPE (Healing Our Past Experiences) 4 the Future - A free prevention-based school, after-school, and summer camp program for school-aged children and their families. It provides a safe space for youth to unpack, and begin healing from trauma and build resiliency. The program is trauma-informed, culturally aligned and knows that by reaching these youth now, they are more likely to avoid risky behaviors in their future. 2. Community Paramedic Peer Support Specialists - Providing culturally aligned and trauma-informed Peer Supports to work alongside Community Paramedics, responding to behavioral health issues and overdoses, included linkage to care and Peer Support Services for up to one year.
