Mental Health First Aid in Urban Country Clubs

Barbershops have represented a safe-haven for men, and especially those who have historically found themselves locked out of opportunities to be served by the status-quo. Today we've invited several panelists to discuss the impact of barbershop culture on these men and how we might integrate models of health and healing without recreating places of machismo, false bravado and toxic masculinist ideologies. Join Lennie Carter of My Tru Circle (www.mytrucircle.com), Dr. O'Shan Gadsden Ph.D. of Gadsden Consulting & Evaluation (www.oshangadsdenphd.com), Gary Taylor MSW of Uphold 31:8 (www.yougoodbro.squarespace.com) and Seanathan Polidore- Masters in Psychology and author of "What's Your Kick: The Guide to Unlocking Your Passion" as we discuss a healthy past, present and future for barbers and their clients.
