SocialRx (formerly Art Pharmacy) was founded in 2022 to address the dual mental health and loneliness crises by connecting members with non-clinical, community-based activities with  protective and therapeutic benefits.

Our social prescribing solution is built around the understanding that traditional mental health services often leave gaps in care, particularly for populations experiencing barriers to access, cultural stigma, or a preference for non-clinical interventions.

Based in Atlanta, SocialRx is currently working with partners in Arizona, California, Connecticut, Georgia, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York, North Carolina, and Wisconsin. We are actively working to expand our offerings to all 50 states.
