Community Engagement

With people of color at the core of our mission and work, The Wells Collective takes pride in helping women of color heal from the traumas that they have experienced in environments that have not been the most embracing of their power and capabilities. Leveraging our backgrounds in psychology, activism and counseling, we host affinity spaces on a regular basis to allow women of color opportunities to process their experiences, better equip them with the tools to navigate society, and help them regain their voice so that they can stand together with allies to challenge all forms of oppression.

What Clients Say About The Wells Collective

“[Teaching, loving and believing in Black girls] was a terrific workshop- it provided critical informatiton that echoes and builds on the work [various teachers] have done with us on campus in the past; offered powerful frameworks for further understanding the experience of Black girls at St. Andrew's and our work as teachers, mentors, and coaches; and opened up space for great moments for reflection on our community, and goal-setting for how we can strive to be better."
