Our Vision

To empower the Black community with education that will accelerate their progress toward sustainable mental well-being.

Our History

In 2016, Angelia Lomax founded Nurturing Black Minds as a social media resource for individuals to learn about mental health and how it manifests in the Black community. The goal was to demystify mental health, decrease the stigma, and develop within the community a more informed perspective to mental health.

Psycho-educational videos, interactive workshops, and speaking engagements have been vessels or the dissemination of information. NBM has connected community members to resources and developed tools that can be used to support one’s psychological well-being.
