In Solidarity with Black Lives Matter

We must always take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented."

- Elie Weisel

We are heartbroken and angry. As we are all finally coming to terms with the insidious reality that racism, privilege and injustice have permeated every aspect of our society, VCCC stands in solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement and all who have suffered heinous injustices.

Although this is a truly difficult time for us all, in many ways, there is hope to be found. The truth will always set us free. In healing ourselves and reckoning with our pain, we heal each other. We re-pattern and make new and different choices.

Change happens incrementally and all steps towards healing and rebuilding are important. The micro does effect change on the macro. We as providers of mental health services are doing the work individually and collectively to remove any and all threads of known and unknown biases. As always, we are committed to serving the mental health needs of our community, especially at this volcanic juncture in our history. We support all those involved in addressing the wounds of systemic racism.  

People of Color have the additional daily burden of dealing with the rage, pain and fear stirred up by both current and historical mistreatment. The strain of these emotional wounds can be depleting and damaging--and can be helped in therapy.
