PROJECT BLACKBIRD Inc.

We partner with campuses nationwide to bring the program to many colleges and universities. The one-hour live event includes a screening of the award-winning short film Blackbird and a panel discussion featuring mental health celebrity advocates alongside Project Blackbird founder Alexandra Miles, and encourages and empowers participants to confront mental health struggles in their lives that may be causing them shame in order to give those situations less power. Additionally, participants are provided with campus, local, and national resources to begin the journey toward recovery and self-acceptance, and all student attendees are offered free therapy for a year paid for by Project Blackbird in partnership with Talkspace therapy providers. Watch Project Blackbird's promo video here for more information. 

 PROJECT BLACKBIRD is a 501(c)3 nonprofit and corresponding touring event, which partners with NAMI (National Alliance on Mental Illness) and Talkspace to educate and help shed shame around mental health for student athletes.
