Mental Health Association in DE

Raise money for Mental Health Association in DE

The Mental Health Association in Delaware (MHA) was incorporated in 1932 as the Delaware State Society for Mental Hygiene, changing its name in 1951 to The Mental Health Association in Delaware. In its early years, the Society's focus was on Classroom Human Relations, Mental Health in Industry, and service to hospitalized patients. Over time, the understanding of mental illness and terminology has changed, but the core values of MHA have not.

The mission of the Mental Health Association in Delaware is to promote improved mental well-being for all individuals and families in Delaware through education, support, and advocacy. The agency is committed to understanding that mental health is equal to physical health and is fundamental to achieving a healthy, balanced, and productive life. The agency is committed to reducing the stigma that surrounds mental illness and supporting comprehensive mental health systems for children and adults that focus on prevention and early intervention.

MHA is an affiliate of Mental Health America and is a Community Outreach Partner for the National Institute of Mental Health. MHA also works closely with Johns Hopkins Medical Center and University of Pennsylvania to obtain the most recent research and information to support agency programming.

MHA is a non-profit agency supported by United Way and through government, foundation, and corporate grants and individual contributions. Funding supports the comprehensive programming that MHA provides to thousands of Delawareans each year.
