ep 46 *Final Episode* Atatiana Jefferson: Why POCs don't call the police for wellness checks
Tuesday, 15 October, 2019
In this episode, Davia discusses the heartbreaking death of 28 year old, Atatiana Jefferson of Fort Worth, Texas in what should've been a "simple" wellness check. The episode discusses the details of the shooting, the impact of this form of trauma, and its implications for mental health wellness checks. This is the final public episode of the AFFIRM podcast. It felt necessary to publicly honor Atatiana Jefferson and make space to normalize the grief, anger, and hurt caused by her unnecessary death. While the final season will be released privately to patreon supporters, you may gain access by becoming a patron with a monthly pledge of $4 by signing up at patreon.com/affirmpodcast. -------------------------------------------------- DISCLAIMER: The information provided throughout podcast, the blog, and email campaigns are resources for educational and informational purposes only and should not take the place of engaging in a professional relationship with a licensed mental health practitioner.
