Every Voice Matters. Every Story Heals.
A Central Texas conference with a statewide and national reach, advancing Black wellness through connection and care.
Amplifying Voices. Advancing Wellness.
The Central Texas African American Family Support Conference (CTAAFSC) brings together trusted professionals, community leaders, and people with lived experience to advance Black mental health and well-being.
While rooted in Central Texas, the conference draws attendees from across Texas and the nation. Centered on the African American community and open to all, CTAAFSC offers practical learning, real conversations, and connections to culturally responsive services.
Hosted by Integral Care in collaboration with a diverse Planning Committee of advocates, health professionals, and people with lived experience, CTAAFSC is powered by public and private community partners. At CTAAFSC, attendees explore mental health, intellectual and developmental disabilities, substance use disorder, and physical health. They leave with practical tools, resources, and next steps to support themselves and others.
