WHY WE DO WHAT WE DO
Our Story
ESTD.
2013
In 2014, Sol Sisters was founded by Dr. Christine Coleman to provide opportunities for women to access services that differed from traditional therapy without the cultural stigma.

Founder, Sol Sisters
In clinical and community settings, Dr. Coleman saw that traditional mental health models often failed to address cultural stigma around care, structural and economic barriers, and the need for community, identity, and belonging alongside therapy.
Dr. Coleman focused on the psychological impact of systemic oppression on women’s wellbeing. Her research and stories of the women she served revealed that healing could not happen in isolation. It had to be cultural, collective and preventative.
With this insight in mind, early Sol Sisters events became real case studies where we learned that women needed more than therapy alone.
They were looking for community, sisterhood, creative expression, places that foster joy, financial stability, professional growth opportunities, and support outside of clinical settings.
WHAT FUELS OUR WORK
Our Guiding Principles
Burnout, anxiety, depression are at historic highs especially for women of color. They are expected to perform, care, and endure without inclusive spaces to rest, heal, connect, and grow.
Our Vision
Sol Sisters envisions a world where every woman and girl has access to the support, community, and resources they need to lead healthy, confident, and fulfilling lives.
Our Mission
Our mission is to redesign accessible wellness and community care for women and girls. Through our wellness ecosystem, Sol Sisters helps them build the confidence, skills, and support they need to thrive in their communities.

“My experience since joining Sol Sisters has been rewarding and evolutionary. I am more confident in who I am as a woman and what I bring to the table. I’ve been reminded by the Sol Sisters’ community that I am seen, I am heard, and I am valuable.”
