ASCAP Unveils Mental Health Initiative for Members in Partnership With Project Healthy Minds
Through the new collaboration, ASCAP members will be connected with mental health providers offering talk therapy, psychiatric services and more.
ASCAP and Project Healthy Minds have teamed up to offer a mental health initiative for their songwriter, composer, and music publisher members. The collaboration aims to provide a comprehensive ecosystem of mental health services, therapy options, and wellness tools. This initiative is a continuation of ASCAP's wellbeing program, launched in 2019, which now includes telehealth benefits through MD Live, dermatology, and additional health services.
ASCAP's Executive Vice President and Chief Strategy and Digital Officer, Nick Lehman, emphasized the importance of supporting creators' mental health, stating, "Creativity thrives when creators are supported — in mind, body, and spirit." The partnership with Project Healthy Minds will grant ASCAP members private access to mental health providers, including talk therapy, psychiatry, peer-led support groups, and self-care apps.
Project Healthy Minds' Founder and CEO, Phillip Schermer, expressed delight in providing ASCAP members with straightforward access to care, whether they need a therapist, a support group, or a tool while on the road. Members can learn more about the program through ASCAP's member access portal.
