Reparations Clinics Network

REPARATIONS / black wellness clinics

In light of recent events and the ancestral traumas of black communities, Illuminating Color and Earth Arts founded the Reparations Black Wellness Clinics. Stewarded by trusted collaborators the clinics are still offered virtually & in person with chapters across the US.

In this clinic, black healers will be providing a variety of healing modalities to black individuals for FREE. To ensure these care takers are supported in mending the traumas of our community, we are raising funds to guarantee that their work is compensated and the clinic keeps it’s doors open. #REPARATIONS : a black folx only walk-in wellness clinic. 

We name and call forth folks of the Black Diaspora to be supported and offer services! In this clinic, black healers will be offering a variety of healing modalities to black individuals for FREE, however, in order to ensure that the community caretakers are being supported, we are raising funds to guarantee that their work can continue to thrive and that they may continue to offer their services to the community for free.

 All monetary support will go to paying our selected healers their fair rate, so they may be supported in mending the traumas of their communities, and ensuring that the clinic may continue opening its doors. This is an opportunity for allies to step up and support the healing of our black communities, directly.

From the Clinics’ first steward, Veronica Agard @verosgotthejuice, writer, educator and creator of Who Heals the Healer and Ancestors in Training series

 :

"We cannot limit ourselves to one method of surviving a White Supremacist system that has multiple methods of harming or ending our existence. If we can be expansive and reclaim our methods of survival, then we can eventually thrive. We understand that reparations were not given to the vast majority of those descended from enslaved Africans across the Black Atlantic. We feel the pains of our people wherever they are and an indescribable longing for a moment in space and time that allowed us to be there for them.

Thank you for supporting this work!
