Health & Wellness

Initiatives

Healing is at the heart of community transformation.

At Abayomi CDC, we recognize that wellness is more than physical health — it’s emotional, mental, and spiritual balance. Our culturally grounded wellness programs are designed to help youth and families reconnect with their bodies, restore their minds, and build tools for resilience.

For years, we've provided access to services that uplift, empower, and center the needs of Detroit residents — because everyone deserves the chance to feel whole.

350 families served annually

Each year, hundreds of youth, adults, and families participate in our fitness classes, mental health workshops, and healing-centered events. From our Self Care Sundays to individual counseling, we’re building a culture of wellness rooted in joy, rest, and restoration — especially for communities that have historically been denied access to it.
