THE WELL HEALING
The Well
Like water wells found around the world, The Well Healing (TWH) is a resource dedicated to the wellbeing and preservation of marginalized communities. Wells provide access to water, and water provides the nourishment and cleansing necessary for a full life. TWH provides holistic and trauma-informed wellness events, resources, and education for historically oppressed communities through a radical Black queer femme lens. Wisdom derived from the East, West, the streets, the academy, and the ancestors are interwoven to create politicized and transformative wellness offerings designed to support the whole person.
The Mission
We are capable of wellness even if wounded.
​
"The Well Healing is a resource founded to provide trauma-informed holistic health services for communities and individuals experiencing marginalization and oppression. Our mission is to connect clients to a network of accessible and intentional healing resources to support our collective wellbeing and resistance ."

Wellness Warriors
"Wellness Warriors" are the community of Black, indigenous, LGBTQ+, spiritually and culturally diverse, people of color The Well Healing serves, celebrates, and honors. Healing is resistance. Wellness Warriors fight against the oppression of marginalized communities. They are dedicated to their personal health and development as an act of resistance.

"Caring for myself is not self-indulgence, it is self-preservation and
that is an act of political warfare."
"As warriors, our job is to... consciously survive it for as long as possible..."
~ Audre Lorde
