RAISE: XChanges 2024 Conference

XChanges 2024 is committed to dismantling oppressive systemic barriers within BIPOC spaces and weaving together the experiences and ideologies of racialized health care physicians. By highlighting the insufficient support received by BIPOC communities, our aim is to significantly impact students’ mental health, and prioritize their well-being. By including the nine dimensions of wellness for racialized students to learn and understand mental health, we are on a mission to foster a community that embraces the mind, creating an environment where students feel empowered to seek and receive the support they need comfortably.
