Dear Friends:

Imagine a future very different from today. Imagine a time when all Black children fulfill their God-given potential, when all of our homes and neighborhoods are places of peace, and we each glow with pride in our natural beauty.

Our goal at the Community Healing Network is to bring that vision to life. We want every Black person to believe deep within that Blackness is synonymous with love, grace, brilliance, honor, integrity and dignity.  

As the year draws to a close, we thank you again for your commitment to building the path to that future when we are free from the lie of Black inferiority and "see ourselves in a whole new light."  

Thanks to you, in 2011:

  • Community Healing Days were a great success. People in 138 cities answered Dr. Maya Angelou's call to Wear Sky Blue to show their commitment to turning the pain of the blues into the sky blue of unlimited possibilities.
  • We launched community healing circles in New Haven, Connecticut, and Portland, Oregon, and;
  • We cemented collaborations with the Association of Black Psychologists and Symphonic Strategies, Inc. (an organization that develops strategies for successful mobilization). Together we have taken steps toward organizing a city-wide network of healing circles in Tuskegee, Alabama, to make Tuskegee the nation's first "community healing model city." Our training template will be a model used to spread the emotional emancipation movement nationwide.

Community Healing Network, Inc., is a low-overhead, volunteer-run, 501(c)(3) grassroots organization. We depend entirely on charitable contributions and we need your help to build on these gains in the year ahead.

Your financial support will enable us to:

  • Increase the number of people celebrating Community Healing Days
  • Develop and produce a Community Healing Circle Training Manual
  • Train and equip 50 local leaders to establish and sustain neighborhood healing circles
  • Forge partnerships with five additional national groups

We will gratefully accept contributions of any amount. Please make your tax-deductible donation today using the secure link below, or send a check to Community Healing Network, Inc. 111 Whalley Avenue, New Haven, CT, 06511, Attention: Jill Snyder, Treasurer.

Season's Greetings and a Happy New Year. 

Thank you,

Jill Snyder, Enola Aird, Dottie Green, Natalie Roche, Tarice Gray, Wizdom Powell Hammond, Sheila Warren, Ric Jennings, Gretchen Vaughn, and all your friends at Community Healing Network, Inc.
