The Cultural Wellness Center (CWC) and Pohlad Family Foundation (the Foundation) invite local Black leaders, healers, artists, or agents of change to participate in the Black Legacy and Leadership Enrichment Initiative. A first-of-its-kind community-designed effort, the initiative’s purpose is to give Black activists the resources and support to recharge themselves so they can better serve the community.
About the Cultural Wellness Center
For more than 25 years, the mission of the Cultural Wellness Center has been to unleash the power of people to heal themselves and build community.
As a culturally rooted nonprofit in the African American community, the organization centers on the idea that when culture and community knowledge are studied and valued, they are powerful tools for health, memory healing, community building, and economic development.
