As Black History Month comes to a close, All Well-Being Services wants to continue celebrating by highlighting another prominent Black figure in mental health and substance use disorder recovery history.

Francis Cecil Sumner is crowned as the 'Father of Black Psychology' as he was the first Black American to earn a Ph.D. in Psychology in 1920. 📚

His research, which Dr. Sumner had to fight against racial bias to secure funding for, explored how racism and bias could be refuted in psychological theories and practice.

Dr. Sumner is a strong reminder to persist in the face of adversity and a shining example of Black Excellence! 💫

As we celebrate Black History Month we are highlighting prominent Black figures in mental health and substance use disorder recovery history.

John Lucas II is a former NBA star, who was the first overall pick in the 1976 draft. He was drafted to the Houston Rockets and went on to play for a host of professional teams over 14 years. 🏀

During his time in the NBA, John struggled with substance use disorder; twice he lost his job due to his struggles.

After working his way through a recovery program, John dedicated himself to helping others going through similar battles. His very own recovery center has helped around 40 athletes with their struggles, and he has returned to the Rockets as an Assistant Coach.

John Lucas II is an astounding example of resiliency, dedication, and personal change for the better! 🌟

She works directly with law enforcement agencies and other establishments to improve policies and build trust within communities. Her amazing work contributes to improving the well-being and mental wellness of Black individuals.

🖤 National Black HIV/AIDS Awareness Day 🖤

Today we recognize National Black HIV/AIDS Awareness Day—a day dedicated to raising awareness about the disproportionate impact of HIV on Black and African American communities, while encouraging education, testing, prevention, and care.

In 2023, Black and African American people accounted for about 38% of new HIV diagnoses in the U.S., even though they make up only around 12% of the population.

We honor the resilience of those affected and stand with community partners working to reduce stigma, expand access to services, and promote supportive, culturally responsive care for all.

Let’s continue to educate, support, and empower one another—because awareness saves lives. 💜🧡
