Boris Lawrence Henson Foundation
We help you choose Joy Over Everything.
Founded in 2018, BLHF has built its reputation on providing trusted referrals and demonstrating a deep understanding of the population health of communities of Color. Through timely and relevant programming and awareness campaigns, BLHF encourages mental wellness, raises awareness of the stigma and the use of stigmatizing language when referring to mental illness, and provides mental health resources to the Black community.
The Boris Lawrence Henson Foundation is charting a new course that encourages Black individuals to own their history, heritage, and collective wounds in empowering, empathic, and transformative ways.
Your donation in action
Your generous contributions support our initiatives, including free therapy, scholarships for aspiring mental health professionals, community outreach programs, the expansion of culturally relevant therapy resources, and more. Every donation, no matter how big or small, makes a difference in breaking down barriers to care and empowering individuals. We’re on a path to give 1 million hours of free mental health services over the next five years! With your help and through awareness campaigns, culturally competent resources, psychoeducational hangouts and timely, action-oriented initiatives, we seek to provide the community with mental freedom.
