Boris Lawrence Henson Foundation

Tap a star to rate

The Boris Lawrence Henson Foundation, established in 2018, removes barriers to mental healthcare for Black youth and adults by providing free and subsidized therapy sessions through partner licensed clinicians. The foundation works to increase access to quality mental health services while addressing the historical racism and cultural insensitivity that has kept many Black individuals away from traditional mental healthcare systems.

This serves Black individuals and families who face cost barriers or who have been harmed by racism within mainstream mental healthcare settings. The foundation's model of freely accessible therapy with culturally competent providers directly addresses both economic and historical barriers, making it a critical resource for Black communities seeking healing without gatekeeping or discrimination.
