MENTAL HEALTH LIBERATION
MENTAL HEALTH LIBERATION
Liberate, Heal, Thrive
Free mental health and peer support for Black, Indigenous, and People of Color
Marginalized communities deserve equitable access to culturally responsive, collective-trauma informed, identity-affirming mental health care.
Together, we bridge Black, Indigenous and Communities of Color/Global Majority with free therapy and mental health care, and empower racialized students & emerging clinicians.
BIPOC Therapy Fund provides 12 sessions of free therapy to individuals in need. Since 2019, Inclusive Therapists has prioritized mental health care access for Black, Indigenous and People of Color/Global Majority (BIPOC). We make it simpler and safer for people with multiply-marginalized identities (eg, 2SLGBTQIA+, Disabled, and Neurodivergent communities) to connect with culturally responsive, identity-affirming, collective-trauma informed therapy services.
The BIPOC Therapy Fund is our co-creation: providing free, personalized mental health therapy to our communities. The Service-Providers are liberation-oriented, professionally licensed, BIPOC community members .
Therapy Funds are intended for first-time participants who do not have a therapist or mental healthcare provider.
Who is eligible to apply for this therapy fund?
This fund is open to Black, Indigenous, and People of Color/Global Majority adult applicants (age 18+) living in the so-called "United States" who are in need of financial support for mental health therapy.
We don't ask about immigration or citizenship. (No documentation is required).
The funds are intended for applicants who do not currently have a therapist, and for first-time participants only. Thank you.
