Boston Black Male Healing Circles Initiative

The Boston Public Health Commission (BPHC) prioritizes the promotion of racial justice and health equity, consistent with its vision of a thriving Boston where all residents live healthy, fulfilling lives free of racism, poverty, violence, and other systems of oppression. This Request for Proposals (RFP) supports that mission by addressing the behavioral health crisis among Black male adults in Boston through the development and delivery of culturally responsive, community-based healing services.

BPHC seeks qualified organizations or vendors to develop and implement a sustainable model of Black Male Healing Circles in Boston. These peer-led spaces will foster emotional expression, resilience, and healing among Black men aged 18 and older, who are disproportionately impacted by racism, violence, trauma, and behavioral health disparities.
