#brothersthrive

Although mental illness and addiction are shared challenges, they are not shared equally. Brothers Thrive is an investment in the wellness of Black men that will pay dividends for generations to come.

That is what #BrothersThrive and #SistersThrive is all about! People of color coming together to promote holistic health.

In New York City, we're making mental health and wellness of Black men, their families, and their communities a priority so that all of our Brothers Thrive.

Through Brothers Thrive, we're partnering with six of the most consequential service organizations in our nation to reach deeper into our neighborhoods. We want to ensure ALL of our communities have access to the resources they need to thrive.

Unity plus collaboration amplifies effectiveness — that's why we're tapping into the strength of notable organizations to tackle the stigma around mental health.

Open and honest conversations about mental health should be inclusive so that ALL of our brothers thrive.

“It’s almost impossible not to know somebody [with mental illness]. You may not recognize it as such and you may not be as sympathetic as you should be, but everybody knows somebody.”
