BMAC’s Willie ‘Prophet’ Stiggers Joins Board of Neil Lasher Music Fund for Addiction Treatment
BMAC's founder joined the board of the addiction treatment fund for music workers the Neil Lasher Music Fund.
With Stiggers in the fold, BMAC and the fund will work together to help address the stigma of addiction in the Black music world and offer support for members of that community who are seeking out treatment. On Feb. 2, Stiggers spoke at the fund’s annual “Breakfast With the Founders Board,” during which he addressed the stigma surrounding “treatment, mental health and wellness” in the Black community. In partnership with BMAC, the fund currently has plans to provide artist “recovery” support spaces at music festivals and venues, as well as to create an awareness-building event in Atlanta this year.
