Welcome to our Healing Community
Journey: Healing Together exists to foster connections and build equity among diverse affinity groups: we do this to unite communities in collective healing. We are currently establishing roots in the heart of downtown Erie to grow and fulfill our purpose of enhancing wellness within New Majority communities.
Our Identity
-
Since early 2020, the impact of political, social, and racially charged tragedies – in addition to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic – has led our community, and others, to their breaking point. Mental health providers have strained to meet the need of their overflowing referrals, causing healers and those seeking healing to struggle. Unfortunately, as with many struggles, historically underserved groups (including BIPOC, LGBTQ+, New Americans, differently abled individuals, those in rural communities) have been disproportionately impacted. This led us to both our vision and our mission.
-
We envision united communities that have worked to restore equity, discover their own uniqueness, and evolve into empowered agents of change.
-
At Journey: Healing Together, folks that are traditionally under-represented are empowered to build unique strengths and heal from systemic and generational wounds. The model of J:HT is to unite communities, restore trust, discover new perspectives, and transform society.
