Muslim Wellness Foundation
The Muslim Wellness Foundation is a nonprofit organization which aims to “reduce the stigma associated with mental illness, addiction and trauma within the American Muslim community through dialogue, education and training”. Their work does this through by engaging community members, health professionals, and religious leaders in conversation to improve mental health literacy, reduce stigma reduction, and promote “help-seeking behavior” and access to culturally competent services.
