Women are at least twice as likely to experience an episode of major depression as men
Compared to their white counterparts, Black women are only half as likely to seek help.
Sista Afya Community Care exists to change that.
A much-needed space where women can connect and heal.
SACC focuses our programs on serving women and girls. We believe that supporting women and girls can help to change the trajectory of their lives by engaging them in culturally responsive and gender-responsive mental wellness care.
