As a Black or Brown person, do you feel like it is impossble to heal during these extraordinary times of continuous violence, prejudice, discrimination, and inhumane acts against people that look like you? Well, you are not alone.
 
Despite the glaring needs of Black Folx, only 1 in 3 Black people who need mental health care actually receive it. One study showed that 63% of Black people believe that a mental health condition is a sign of personal weakness. Contrary to this belief, it takes courage, not weakness, to take action toward our own emotional wellbeing.

Gena Golden, LCSW created this fund to center healing as a liberatory response to inequitable treatment, generational trauma and the persistant psychological wounds inflicted upon the body, mind and spirit of Black folx.

The Therapy Fund for Black Folx seeks to provide 4-6 therapy sessions provided by licensed and experienced mental health professionals who embody cultural humility, anti-oppressive treatment methods and prioritize the healing of Black Folx.
