Call for Presenters

We invite mental health professionals to
submit proposals for BMHS 2026.
Share your research, clinical innovations, and expertise
with colleagues.

The Call for Proposals is now open for the 10th Annual Black Mental Health Symposium.

Presenters are the heartbeat of BMHS. You are the architects of collective healing, the voices that transform lived experience into clinical excellence, and the leaders building a future where Black mental wellness is a reality—not a goal.

We invite clinicians, researchers, educators, and practitioners to submit proposals that advance our theme:

Remember. Reset. Reclaim.

Whether you’re presenting groundbreaking research, sharing innovative interventions, or offering practical tools for everyday practice, your contribution shapes the future of our field.
