Strong Roots Collective
About Us
Mission
To empower Black men to prioritize their mental health by breaking stigmas, providing culturally relevant resources, and fostering a supportive community rooted in healing and strength.
Vision
We envision a future where Black men have equitable access to mental health care, are free from stigma, and thrive in communities that uplift their healing, resilience, and humanity.
Our Story
At Strong Roots Collective, we began with a truth too often ignored: Black men are hurting in silence. Born from lived experience and a deep understanding of generational trauma, we saw a gap in the mental health system—where Black men were overlooked, stigmatized, and underserved.
​
What started as a vision for healing has grown into a movement. We believe mental wellness is a right, not a luxury. Through therapy access, healing circles, and culturally rooted support, we’re planting strong foundations of care, connection, and justice—because strong roots grow strong communities.
Programs
Strong Roots Collective offers culturally grounded programs that support the mental health and wellness of Black men. From therapy scholarships and healing circles to wellness retreats, storytelling campaigns, and advocacy work, our programs are designed to break generational stigma, increase access to care, and create safe spaces for connection, vulnerability, and growth. Together, we are building a community where Black men can heal and thrive.
