Healing Our Black Men.
Saving Our Communities.

Creating a safe space for Black teens, adults, and fathers to re-imagine the possibilities through social justice and prevention advocacy that builds resilience while empowering them to be transformative members of society. 

Welcome to Project LIFT:

Project LIFT promotes equality & economic growth by championing the upliftment of Black men, providing them with behavioral health & prevention services, resources, training, workshops and tools to help them thrive.

Get LIFTED!

At Project LIFT, leveling the playing field for at-risk youth, particularly young Black men, is our primary focus. By exposing them to skills, strategies and disciplined principles, we’ll help them create a solid foundation for emotional and financial wellness. As they begin to embark on a commitment to personal growth, they will learn how to tap into their ingenuity, uncover their fortitude and celebrate their triumphs, big and small.

Getting LIFTED means you’ll:
  • Have the support you need to overcome obstacles
  • Understand your triggers
  • Practice healthy habits
  • Learn to use money as a tool
  • Learn to value & establish better relationships

Programs

Your life, your voice and your mental health matter! At Project LIFT, we’ve created programs that will nourish, enrich and cultivate who you desire to be while introducing you to the person you didn’t realize you could be.​

Suicide Awareness

Raising Awareness and Providing Support

Suicide rates within the Black community, especially among teens and men, are rising at alarming levels. Many mental health struggles go unnoticed due to stigma, systemic challenges, and a lack of awareness. Our Suicide Awareness efforts aim to educate individuals and communities on the risks, warning signs, and available support for those who may be struggling.

By increasing understanding through education, we can help break the silence and encourage more open conversations about mental health. It’s essential for families, friends, and communities to be informed and ready to take action. Together, we can make a difference and ensure that no one feels they have to face their struggles alone.
