Imani Community Wellness Project
The Imani Community Wellness Project at Witherspoon is an interactive, multi-generational, holistic wellness program designed for members of Witherspoon and the surrounding community that centers on the arts. Imani is the 7th Day of Kwanzaa and means faith! Focusing on the themes of mind (mental health), body (physical health), and spirit (spiritual health), the Imani Community Wellness Project seeks to offer programs and activities that seek to connect, inspire, nourish, and inform its participants through the power of story, relationship building, and liminal experiences as a way to foster community and as a means of spiritual formation. Programs in each of these tracks will be offered weekly or biweekly, all at no cost to the community. We are committed to creating a community of hope and restoration, where people from all walks of life can feel welcomed and supported by the programs and activities made available to them.
