About Us
At Black Rose Wellness, we create sacred, culturally rooted spaces where Black women and femmes can heal, feel held, and come home to themselves. As a nonprofit collective, our work is grounded in ancestral wisdom and lived experience, honoring the fullness of who we are and the resilience of our communities.
