Get Involved with us
You don’t have to carry the load alone.
With so many commitments competing for your time, maybe you’re reluctant to add to your plate. Perhaps you’ve been here before. Your heart is in the right place, but you’ve taken on too much and burnt out.
We’re with you. We’ve been there, too, and because of this, we’d like Solis to be different.
We know that life happens and sometimes we say yes, only for our circumstances to change. Just let us know, we’re right there with you. We’re all volunteering our time and energy in this space and sometimes need to hit pause to protect our own well-being. Moreover, we believe that your well-being comes before anything else – after all, we can never give from an empty cup.
With that in mind, there are many ways you can be involved, with each requiring a different time commitment. We’re flexible and happy to be led with what works best for you!

Join our Think Tank
Our Think Tank is a community of practice for multicultural (and culture-oriented) mental health advocates, professionals and humans!
As folks who hold roles and positions “both inside and outside the community”, this space is for you to share experiences and resources, to work collaboratively in addressing the silos that exist in this work and to help build each other up as we work toward increased cultural humility in our work.
