Elevate Black Wellness Spearheads Transformative Movement With Inaugural Black Wellness Week

"Elevate Black Wellness" proudly announced the successful launch of the first Black Wellness Week in Washington state from April 15-19, 2024. This initiative, co-founded by Keith and Christina Blocker, secured support at various governmental levels, including a proclamation from Governor Jay Inslee and acknowledgments from several Washington cities and counties.

Throughout this inaugural week, numerous events took place statewide, supported by community organizations aiming to enhance health equity. These activities underscored the community's role in bolstering holistic well-being among Black residents. The organization has contributed significantly since its inception in 2023, providing over 60,200 health and wellness resources and managing impactful programs like microgrants.

According to Keith and Christina Blocker, the organization focuses on the comprehensive aspects of well-being -- physical, mental, spiritual, and economic health, with cultural relevancy at its core. They emphasized the collective effort in commemorating Black Wellness Week and encouraged further community engagement to sustain these transformative efforts.
