Doll's House Foundation Doll's house Foundation is built on promoting the ideals of love through charitable giving. Doll came from a family committed to the charity of giving.

Doll’s House Foundation is a legacy inspired by Josephine “Doll” Johnson who adopted the simple principal of helping those in need. Doll had a philosophy of helping that transcended race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation and socioeconomic conditions. This matriarch of her family, she was the second in her family traditionally nicknamed “Doll”. Many of the individuals of this family were successful leaders and helped drive the economic, emotional and mental progress of many they encountered. Doll and other members of this legacy were never fond of regiments of organizational structure. She believed that you’re “good deeds” would “unveil the ingredients” of your character. She would offer support to various public service organizations and never required accolades. She was reared in Alabama where she was groomed in the tradition of good cooking, good fellowship, and southern hospitality. Advocating for the elderly, disabled populations, education, delivering meals on wheels, and being well versed in affairs related to health care, were just a few of her attributes. Lastly, her home was always open as a safe place to rest, hence the name “Doll’s House”.

Menopause doesn’t happen in a vacuum. Neither should the conversation around it.

For many women, menopause can affect mood, energy, sleep, confidence, and how they move through the workplace and the world. For Black women and other women of color, those changes can also collide with stereotypes, expectations, and the pressure to constantly manage how they are perceived.

That’s why Doll’s House Foundation is inviting men into the conversation.

Join us for MEN-O-PAUSE: A Live Community Conversation, an honest, informative discussion about what menopause can look like and how husbands, sons, brothers, friends, coworkers, and caregivers can become better sources of understanding and support.

🎙️ Featuring Dr. Jedan Phillips, MD, Stony Brook Medicine
🍹 Mocktail Bar Service
📍 Bloomfield Public Library, 906 Main Street, Bloomfield, CT
📅 Tuesday, December 15
🕕 6:00 PM
💻 Attend in person or virtually

Men don’t experience menopause biologically, but we absolutely experience it relationally. Learning what is happening can mean listening better, asking better questions, reducing unnecessary conflict, and showing up when the women in our lives need us.

Know. Learn. Support.

MEN ALWAYS FAIL.
That’s the narrative in our heads a lot of the time.
We come up short everyday.
That’s by design. The world is a series of errors that we are collectively responding to.

The joy, progress, and road to serenity we all seek lies in how we respond to failure, both real and perceived.
