Everdistant Utopia is fundraising
Avalon Loveland Foundation Fundraiser (2023)
The Loveland Foundation
The Loveland Foundation works to bring opportunity and healing through fellowships, residency programs, and more. They directly provide Black women and girls with funding for therapy and connections with culturally capable mental health professionals.
Their major programs include:
Their Therapy Fund, which supports applicants by providing vouchers for 4-12 therapy sessions from a list of professionals that are chosen to increase the likelihood that participants can financially continue to afford therapy after the provided sessions.
They also offer education workshops and resources to participating therapists through their Therapist Professional Development partnership. Last year they offered a six part series about eating disorders in Black women and girls that covered historical context, intergenerational trauma, and its impact on body image.
Their Group Support Series partners with Pathlight Mood and Anxiety Center to host support groups for Therapy Fund recipients that cover topics like self-compassion, the power of words we use and let in, and tools for navigating unique challenges associated with mental wellness in communities of color.
Their Scholarship Fund provides scholarships to aspiring BIPOC therapists. Research done for this fund has shown that there are financial barriers impacting BIPOC therapists.
