Recovery Room Saturdays
About Recovery Room Saturdays
The Recovery Room (R&R) is a sanctuary for Black men seeking connection and support. In unity, we build a stronger network that supports the well-being of Black men.
Life can be overwhelming, and we understand that. The Recovery Room offers a safe space to combat mental fatigue and the pressures of daily life, encouraging meaningful connections and collaboration within our community. Just like an emergency room, our space prioritizes check-ins and checkups, fostering a community dedicated to collective healing.
Join us every first Saturday of the month for Recovery Room Saturdays, an uplifting and intentional gathering where meaningful fellowship and engaging dialogue is common practice in a space filled with positive energy and connection.
We look forward to hosting you at one of DC's intimate coworking spaces The Metropolitan by Black House Collection!
Our monthly kickbacks offer a safe space curated for Black men to unwind, bond, and relate, but most importantly connect without pretenses or agendas. Lastly, there is no dress code for this event.
We are excited to meet you and learn more about how we can best support your journey towards wholeness as Black men.

Recovery Room
Recovery Room (R&R) is a wellness service initiative created to support the mental and emotional well-being of Black men. Through monthly gatherings, wellness sessions, training and development opportunities, and intentional community connections, R&R offers a safe, welcoming space for positive reflection, healing, growth, and community support. It’s a space where Black men can show up fully, find support, and be reminded they’re not alone. Too often, Black men shoulder the world’s expectations without a space to release, reset, or simply be. The Recovery Room was created to change that. We envision a dedicated sanctuary i.e. an “emergency room” for the mind, body, and spirit where Black men can: ✔ Be seen, valued, and supported ✔ Connect with purpose and community ✔ Explore positive outlets and creative expression ✔ Access culturally intentional wellness practices ✔ Build relationships that strengthen identity and resilience Our mission is simple and transformative: To curate safe spaces for Black men to connect, find purpose, and align within community. Our vision is bold and necessary: To improve the overall mental wellness of Black men, one room and one experience at a time.
