About Us

Our Mission

Make health and wellness accessible and an integral community value. 

LRH Wellness’ mission is to build thriving, healthy, and well communities that support Black and marginalized groups of people. Through free education, tangible tools,  programs, and wellness communities we strive to support individuals and communities on their wellness journeys and make healthy joyful living accessible and a staple in all communities.

Our Vision

We envision a world where communities have the tools and resources to uplift the most marginalized, alleviate suffering, heal trauma, and create authentic connections.

Our Approach

  • Model of Change

    The LRH Wellness EPIC Inclusion Model of Change is a powerful framework designed to drive positive and transformative change within organizations and communities. EPIC, which stands for education, program implementation, community, inclusion represents the core principles and actions that guide our approach to fostering sustainable and fundamental changes in how our community engages with health and wellness.

  • Our Socioecological Model

    We take a multi-tiered approach, driving change at the individual, interpersonal, organizational, and community levels. Our work takes into account the complex interplay between personal and environmental factors. We pay explicit attention to the social, institutional, and cultural contexts of people-environment relations. This perspective emphasizes the multiple dimensions, multiple levels, and complexity of human situations and informs how we approach serving our community.

  • Reinvesting in the Community

    To shift culture and destigmatize wellness we invest in our community as much as they invest in us. The LRH Wellness Foundation is our charitable subsidary, which implements and finances community based programs in addition to offering patient and student grants. The money our community invests in our work enables us to re-invest in marginalized and under resourced communities.
