The Black Healing Fund exists to assist in the fight against the mental, health, & economic impact of anti-blackness.

About us

The mission of the Black Healing Fund is to assist in the fight against the mental, health, and economic impact of anti-blackness—racism—on Black and Brown communities, and to both create and directly support programs, as well as individuals prioritizing the continued healing of Black and Brown communities, specifically prioritizing Black communities in Snohomish County. Our services are based on our FOUR PILLARS: Awareness & Advocacy We strongly believe that increasing awareness about anti-Blackness, racism, racial trauma, racialized terrorism and the scars they leave behind, and advocating for systemic change is vital to dismantling systems of oppression. Education & Empowerment We strongly believe one of the first major steps to helping our communities heal, become self-sufficient and self-advocating is through the education and empowerment of our community members who are center to our mission. Decolonizing Access We strongly believe that much of the current funding system, which has helped a great deal, will have to be decolonized, so that there is a truly equitable access to desperately needed resources by our Black/Brown communities. Stronger Partnerships We strongly believe in the creation and maintenance of stronger and extensive partnerships, because that is what this work requires and will continue to require. We truly believe that it takes and will take a village (all of us) to get this done.
