Additionally, through this partnership, BlackDoctor.org will provide H.Y.P.E. participants a platform on the site to share their stories through blogs and videos. “We’re excited to be giving youth more exposure to emotional wellness interventions, and bringing program delivery into a virtual format,” said Sandria Washington, Executive Editor at BlackDoctor.org. “We view this partnership as an investment in the future of our youth.”
“BlackDoctor.org has a vast online presence with millions of monthly views. This partnership will give a broad range of youth exposure to H.Y.P.E, while allowing them to find their voices using 21st century tools,” continued Winfrey.
