DC-based mental health organization, Onyx Therapy Group, is excited to announce its inaugural Mental Health Fair taking place on Sunday, April 24th from 12PM-5PM.

Hosted at Union Market’s Auto Shop venue in the NorthEast quadrant of the city, the Health Fair will feature a wide-range of Black owned local businesses, raffle prizes, and panel discussions. A community-focused event aimed at raising awareness and money for those in the Black/Brown and LGBTQ+ communities that cannot afford therapy, the funds raised will help to pay for their sessions.

Led by Onyx’s CEO & Founder, Dr. LaNail R. Plummer, the event is free-to-the-public and will provide resources and information to better help manage our own mental health journeys and break the stigma around mental health conversations.
