Rev. Dr. Christian Frazier: Hollywood Star Turned Mental Health Hero Confronts Black Suicide Epidemic

Rev. Dr. Christian Frazier, once known for his roles in “Gotham” and “Law & Order: SVU,” is now making headlines for a different reason. As BIPOC Mental Health Awareness Month unfolds, his advocacy work in mental health and suicide prevention for Black, Indigenous, and People of Color takes center stage.

Leaving behind his acting career, Rev. Dr. Frazier became a certified Mental Health First Aid instructor and immersed himself in public health. He is a key member of several prominent organizations, including the National Changing Minds Initiative and the National Alliance of Mental Illness [NAMI] Hillsborough, where he serves on the board. He is also an integral part of the Zero Suicide Alliance Hillsborough, leading the BIPOC subcommittee and participating in the veterans subcommittee.

Rev. Dr. Frazier’s efforts address the urgent issue of rising suicide rates in Black and Brown communities, which now surpass all other demographics. His involvement in the National Council of Mental Wellbeing, which has trained 3 million people across the U.S. in Mental Health First Aid, highlights the importance of equipping individuals with the skills to assist those in crisis.

“We need to break the silence around mental health in our communities,” Rev. Dr. Frazier states. “Cultural icons, from Hip-Hop artists to faith leaders, play a crucial role in normalizing these conversations and getting trained.”

Bebe Moore Campbell’s pioneering work in mental health advocacy for African Americans set the stage for today’s efforts. Resources such as the BIPOC Mental Health Toolkit and Mental Health Screener at Mental Health America (MHA) continue her legacy by providing culturally responsive information and self-assessment tools.

NAMI also offers extensive resources, including support groups and educational materials tailored for BIPOC individuals. Yet, awareness of these resources is still a significant barrier.

A vital lifeline in this mission is the 988 crisis hotline, a national service available by phone and text. Despite its importance, only 19% of the population knows about it. Rev. Dr. Frazier is determined to change this, especially within BIPOC communities where access to mental health resources can be limited.

Rev. Dr. Frazier, also a mindfulness meditation expert and author of “Happiness Triggers” and “Unleashing Potential – A Guide for Life Mastery,” is driving a movement to transform mental health care in BIPOC communities. His work is a testament to the power of advocacy and the necessity of accessible mental health care for all, making him a true hero in the fight against the rising tide of suicides in Black and Brown communities.
