During their stay, the team will have the opportunity to explore mindfulness and restore balance, nourish their spirits, and tap into their creative potential.

THE AAKOMA PROJECT
The AAKOMA Project believes that to meet the mental health needs of Youth of Color, we need to operate at three levels – raising consciousness among individuals, providing accessible tools for ongoing management, and changing systems to receive youth and provide better care.
