About us
The BMHC mission addresses disparities through effective strategies focused on decreasing mortality and morbidity rates among men of color via improved quality of life, self-health maintenance, and family lifestyle. The BMHC's coalition line of effort leverages the resources and experience of various health providers to coordinate educational workshops, and health screenings (vision, dental, behavioral, physical, etc.), and create greater capacity and access to appointments. Patients drive the types of services offered and sought after, and their input takes priority in determining courses of action to resolve healthcare gaps, culturally appropriate services/programs/material, and appropriately assigning and analyzing metrics. Based on identified and validated root causes from the patient journey and experiential feedback, decision-maker level brainstorming events occur to identify immediate resolutions to reassess patient journey impact for hopeful implementations across all partners and their enterprises. Although the BMHC focuses on black men, it is open to all men of color, ages 18 and over, residing in East Travis County which encompasses the I-35 corridor with a particular interest in supporting veterans. Although multiple agencies are collaborating to provide a menu of holistic services, programs are designed intentionally by individuals with lived experience/expertise and incorporate both traditional and non-traditional behavioral health intervention service delivery models. Our traditional services consist of systematic, scientific & evidence-based SAMHSA-guided practices, curriculum, and tools.

Just TWO days until BMHC will be hosting the "Man Boobs Matter" event in solidarity with the women in our lives and to raise awareness in the community that men are also diagnosed with breast cancer. Our intentional inclusion of men is for enhanced awareness, equity, and access to health prevention and healthcare around breast cancer. It also creates opportunities to discuss prostate and colorectal cancer. The Black Men's Health Clinic® (BMHC) highlights Breast Cancer Awareness Month during the month of October but activates behavioral change all year long.
