“Let’s Get Mentally Fit” is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization that sees mental fitness as a lifestyle choice (just like physical fitness), and confronts the stigma on mental health. Our mission is to support all those who prioritize their mental fitness by choice and/or by circumstance and help them make informed decisions to live well and without shame. Through digital resources, referrals, support groups, and live events our goal is to create awareness and decrease barriers to effective mental health care. Whether you’re a mom or a mogul; a college student or a corporate executive, an actor or an activist; a pastor or a president, we believe you have the right to design your life in a way that supports your ability to be your healthiest self.
Webinars
Our 45-minute educational webinars are held once per month and feature both an educational and discussion component infused with a practical tip to maintain one’s mental fitness.

Mental Fitness Features
Let’s Get Mentally Fit is the proud fiscal sponsor of ADAP7IV3, a community arts center offering classes and workshops to its surrounding community at affordable prices. Research has shown that art has been proven to improve anxiety and depression by activating the reward system in the brain. Many clinicians integrate art therapy and expression in their programs as a form of treatment. Due to the ongoing nature of the pandemic, this program is not only necessary but also a likely fit with Let’s Get Mentally Fit Foundation.
