We are so excited to share the work of the twenty recipients of the 2024 Southern Healers grant round, a project of the Healing and Resilience programming! These grants are dedicated to so many of the innovative healing efforts led by LGBTQI Black, Indigenous and People of Color (BIPOC) Southerners. We define healers broadly to include therapists, counselors, social workers, healers, addiction specialists, life coaches, body workers, yoga instructors, reiki masters, energy healers and other wellness practitioners who are working to improve their clients’ lives. This $10,000 Southern Healers Special Grant Round distributes grants of up to $500 to healing efforts led by BIPOC LGBTQI Southerners.
This special grant round, now in its third year, was a part of CSE’s Southern Equality Fund, which has been making grassroots grants across the LGBTQ South since 2015. Since its inception, the Southern Equality Fund has prioritized supporting work led by BIPOC, transgender, and rural organizers.
