Community is the first medicine.
Kin Community Initiatives offers free and low-cost workshops, training, and support circles for Black men, boys, families, and the broader community, because wellbeing isn't just about what happens in a doctor's office. It starts with people showing up for each other.
We're building something here. Come be part of it in the DMV, Atlanta, and online.
What we offer
Mental Health First Aid
Evidence-based, internationally certified training to recognize and respond to mental health crises.
Support Circles
Structured spaces for honest conversation, peer support, and shared healing.
Financial Wellness
Financial stress is a mental health issue. We treat it that way, with tools, not shame.
Holistic Health
Practices that treat the whole person: body, mind, and community.
Sankofa Summer Hours
A free meals and snacks program for youth under 18, built to open doors to library access, library card registration, and deeper community partnership. Held seasonally in our community spaces.
Support the work
Make a donation
All programs are free or low-cost because economic barriers shouldn't stand between anyone and support. Your gift makes that possible.
Volunteer with us
Whether you want to help facilitate workshops, support summer programming, or just show up. There's a place for you here.
Kin Community Initiatives is open to the general public. Our programs center Black men, boys, their families, and caregivers because we believe in starting where the need is greatest and building outward together.
