2023 Black Youth Wellness Summit
CHARLOTTE, N.C. - ncarol.com -- Living Waters Inc, a faith-based non-profit, in partnership with the Black Youth Wellness Initiative and the Department of Sociology at UNC Charlotte, will host its 2023 Black Youth Wellness Summit on September 23rd in Charlotte.  The summit, which coincides with Suicide Prevention Month, is the feature event for Living Waters' Black Youth Wellness Weekend activities.

The activities include
  • The Building Bridges For Black Youth Wellness dialogue with faith leaders, youth-serving organizations and parents/caregivers on Friday, September 22, 2023
  • The 2023 Black Youth Wellness Summit on Saturday, September 23, 2023
  • Media advocacy campaigns focusing on Black youth mental and emotional wellbeing

Black children (under 13) are almost twice as likely to die by suicide than their white peers, according to the U.S. Surgeon General's Advisory on Protecting Youth Mental Health in 2021. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) confirmed that suicide rates for Black youths (ages 10-24) rose significantly from 2018 to 2021. Compounding the issue, Black Americans face barriers to care that make it harder to seek help, and the stigma of discussing mental health challenges adds an additional hurdle.
