🚵🏼 Trailblazer Award! We are grateful to the Marin Museum of Bicycling for their many years of support at B4B. Their dedication to preserving the past, celebrating the present, and looking to the future of bicycling is an inspiration.

"The Marin Museum of Bicycling is honored to receive this year's Trailblazer award. Thank you! Partnering with Buckelew Programs has always seemed a natural fit. Many visitors to the museum share with us how important cycling is to them personally, even how it has transformed their lives. This always rings true. For so many of us, cycling is what makes us feel best. Riding keeps us healthy, cheers us and brings a sense of freedom into our day. Cycling empowers us, building our confidence in ourselves and what we can do. People who enter a bicycle museum are fascinated to learn how this amazing vehicle has brought joy for over 150 years. They find themselves in a museum of their happy place!" ~ Joe Breeze

Thank you Joe and the Marin Museum of Bicycling! mmbhof.org

🧠✨ During , we honor the women whose advocacy in the mental healthcare field created much-needed advancements in the treatment and available resources to those dealing with mental illness.

Women like Mary Whiton Calkins (1836-1930), who taught psychology and philosophy at Wellesley College, was the first woman to be president of the American Psychological Association, and spent years battling gender discrimination in the field.

And, Bebe Moore Campbell (1850-2006) who dedicated her life to advocating for the mental health needs of the Black community, while also founding the Los Angeles chapter of the National Alliance on Mental Illness.

We owe our gratitude to the many women of the past and those who continue to shape the field of mental healthcare today.

Our Story

Buckelew Programs helps people with mental health, addiction, and related behavioral health challenges lead healthier, more independent lives, strengthening families and communities in the process. Founded in 1970, Buckelew Programs opened Marin County’s first 24-hour residential mental health treatment facility, which offered supported housing for six adults. Today, we serve nearly 10,000 people each year throughout Marin, Sonoma, Napa, Mendocino, and Lake counties, making us the North Bay’s largest provider of community-based mental health and support services and a critical component of the area’s healthcare safety net.
