I talk to Jenne Johns who has created a nonprofit, Once Upon a Preemie to address the health disparities black families face when a child is born prematurely. www.onceuponapreemie.org @onceapreemie (IG) once-upon-a-preemie-academy (LI) @onceuponapreemie (FB)
Supporting The mental wellness of workers is not only the right thing to do - but it can also help the bottom line. I speak to Tonya Ladipo, Founder and CEO of The Ladipo Group, LLC, the visionary behind the region’s only therapy, counseling, and Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion consulting practice specializing in serving Black and African American communities. We discuss the importance of culturally competent mental health support in the workplace.

First, I speak to Dr. Jill Bowen, Commissioner of the Philadelphia Department of Behavioral Health and Intellectual Disability Services about the 988 Lifeline, a national network of over 200 local, independent crisis centers equipped to help people in mental health-related distress or experiencing a suicidal crisis via call, chat, or text. The 988 Lifeline provides free and confidential support to people in suicidal crisis or mental health-related distress 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, across the U.S. We also discussed the DBHIDS website that provides a wealth of mental health resources.
