Through trauma-informed meditation, yoga, and other services, Inner City Bliss encourages holistic wellness among communities of color.

Bay Area nonprofit Inner City Bliss is driven by a single goal: Bringing more BLISS into the world. Founder Andre Humphrey knows first-hand how important trauma-informed, holistic wellness is, especially for youth communities of color.

"My mother would always tell me that everything happens for a reason," Humphrey added. "Now, when I sit in front of these kids, and they tell me their stories of what they're going through and they tell me about their traumas, I'm able to hold space for them in strength." "We're so used to yelling and danger happening around us," said Kimberly Higareda, a Fremont High School student. "Having a calm space is not what we know."
