It’s been four years since we lost Michael Kenneth Williams, but his light still leads the way.

In this special conversation, Dr. David J. Johns, Dominic Dupont, and Jonnel C. Doris of StartCare reflect on his legacy of truth, healing, and advocacy and the ongoing fight for mental health equity in Black communities.

This is a call to act, to heal, and to keep talking!

This World Mental Health Day, StartCare is using our voice to break the silence around stigma in mental health and substance use among Black and Brown men.

We recently joined the friends and family of Michael K. Williams to honor his life and legacy with a walk celebrating his commitment to community and change. By speaking openly, challenging misconceptions, and leading with compassion, we can build a culture where seeking care is a sign of strength.

This message is at the heart of our mission and lives on through the Michael K. Williams Legacy Award, which will be presented to Malik Yoba at StartCare’s 56th Celebration.
