Why people Walk and Run for Mental Wellness
Mental Health problems impact one in four people every year, reducing the quality of life for individuals and their families. More than 395,000 adults and over 80,000 children in Virginia have a serious mental illness. Unfortunately, no one is immune as mental disorders cross all boundaries -- age, gender, race/ethnicity, social and economic status.
MHAF's unique services provide positive community impact. These include:
-
the only Mental Health Referral & Information Services HelpLine connecting people with needed providers and resources
-
the only free companion and supportive services program for homebound older adults
-
the only public policy grassroots organization promoting mental health legislation and funding for community-based services
-
and much, much more!!
Help us ensure that each and every one of us has access to health,
hope and recovery!
