The National Mental Health Association
The National Mental Health Association is dedicated to promoting mental health, preventing mental disorders and achieving victory over mental illness through advocacy, education, research and service. It envisions a just, humane and healthy society in which all people are accorded respect, dignity, and the opportunity to achieve their full potential free stigma and prejudice. For almost 100 years, inspired by the courage of our founder Clifford Beers, the National Mental Health Association has been the broad-based citizens voluntary movement for mental health in this country. As we enter our second century, we rededicate ourselves to achieving the following goals: Advocacy, Public Education, Research, Services, and Organization.
