Mixed in America is a community organization looking to have more nuanced conversation about race in America, specifically through the multiracial lens. Our goal is to empower the mixed community by facilitating supportive spaces for mixed individuals to explore and unpack their identities. Mixed in America offers services for adults, children, affinity groups, schools, and businesses. Our approach is trauma-informed, holistic, inclusive and autonomous.

Historically, the mixed race existence has been erased within society. Multiracial people are often pressured to categorize themselves as only one of their multiple races. This denies mixed people their full expression, limiting them to identifying as only a fraction of themselves. Mixed individuals often face similar racial traumas as their monoracial counterparts but lack the community and support to process it. The ways in which mental health affects the mixed community has yet to be properly researched and understood. We assume the mixed experience rather than asking mixed people themselves what it’s like to exist in a multiracial body. This journey is unique and filled with nuance. Embracing duality is not easy. The resulting wounds are oftentimes invalidated, misunderstood, and ignored, leaving us with very few resources to assist in authentic healing. Mixed in America aims to provide these resources and facilitate spaces to remedy these complex challenges.

The Co-founders, Meagan and Jazmine are trauma-informed mixed identity specialists who are dedicated to healing and empowering the mixed community. They have worked with hundreds of mixed race individuals across the United States, Canada and UK. They have built a community organization via Instagram specifically for mixed race people, which has over 28,000 followers. Meagan and Jazmine have held 50+ programs and facilitated healing spaces for schools such as UNCSA, Seattle Academy of Arts and Sciences, Biola University, and Highline Public Schools.
