Actress Taraji P. Henson is set to host a new talk show, “Peace of Mind With Taraji,” on Facebook Watch.
“I’ve long been a mental health advocate for the black community and created the Boris Lawrence Henson Foundation in 2018 that has provided resources to thousands of people who are struggling,” she said in a statement.
The show will feature interviews with celebrities, mental-health experts, and everyday people, according to Page Six.
“I’m looking forward to bringing this new talk series to Facebook … where I can continue to create a conversation around an issue that is near and dear to my heart,” she said.
The 50-year-old actress’s inspiration behind her non-profit foundation is her father Boris, who suffered from mental-health issues stemming from his time during the Vietnam War.
Her foundation’s mission is to “eradicate the stigma around mental health issues in The African-American community”.
The mother-of-one will also appear in an upcoming spinoff of “Empire,” whose final season ended in April.
