The Foundation collaborates with the Missouri Department of Mental Health (as their educational branch), as well as other organizations, in providing broad-based public education, awareness and stigma reduction services. Such services may include positive media communications, PSAs, marketing to the general public, providing mental health resource materials and assistance, hosting and/or coordinating special events and trainings, and providing technical assistance in areas such as suicide prevention, Mental Health First Aid, eating disorders and educational awareness campaigns.
We serve the entire state of Missouri's population, but more specifically the mental health communities.
