Alaafia Student WELLNESS INITIATIVE
Led by wellness visionary and educator Akua T.J. Robinson, the Alaafia Student Support
Initiative is on a mission to bring healing, hope, and mental wellness to Black students across
the country. In a world where stress, burnout, and trauma are all too common, Alaafia creates a
safe, affirming space for students to reconnect, reset, and restore.
The Alaafia Student Initiative is raising funds to provide college students with scholarships to cover student fees, food, mental health resources and internships.
