Finding Elijah: A Discussion on Suicide, Mental Health,
and our Journey to Wellness in the Black Community
On March 28, The Roxbury Film Fest and The Wellness Collaborative held a screening and panel discussion of the film Finding Elijah by Yolanda Johnson – Young.
Filmmaker Statement: I believe that my work on Finding Elijah can create a collective consciousness to open the dialogue about suicide awareness and prevention, with solutions on how to break the stigma surrounding mental health conditions and homelessness, and have real conversations to stop suicide.
A recording of the entire discussion will be available soon. Below are mental health and wellness resources shared following the event.
