We are honored by, and grateful for the support from our sponsors and partners, who recognize this Conference’s importance in society’s fabric, and the need for increased mental health awareness for LGBTQ+ Black and peoples of color.

DBGM’s founder, President & CEO, Antoine Craigwell, encourages agencies, corporations, institutions, and organizations’ leaders, executives, program directors, staff, clients and vendors to join in supporting and sponsoring this unique annual gathering.
A sponsorship demonstrates to your clients, staff/employees, vendors, and the wider communities that you are supporting them in one of the most meaningful aspects of their lives - their mental health, and allows them to bring their whole selves to their responsibilities. People feeling seen, accepted/belonged, and respected for who they are become contributors to and partners in their respective communities, and integral to any entity’s functioning.

DBGM is the parent organization hosting IMM26
