To Our Community,

The clinicians and staff at the Berkeley Therapy Institute are devastated by the murders of George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, and Breonna Taylor this year, and the countless others who have lost their lives to police brutality and systemic racism. We are saddened and outraged by the policies enacted and upheld by federal and local government agencies that have allowed so many Black lives to be cruelly and senselessly lost without justice for the victims or their families.

We stand in solidarity with the Black community here in the Bay Area and around the country. We have made a donation to the NAACP Legal Defense and Education Fund. We have also committed as a group to be trained by People of Color and Black educators on how to be an anti-racist organization.

To the Black members of our community: We see you, we support you, and we will strive to do the lifelong work to be your allies. We invite everyone in our community to stand alongside us in our expression of outrage and support, and to commit to action.

Please be safe and kind to one another.

 

In solidarity,

The Clinicians and Staff of the Berkeley Therapy Institute
