About MENTAL HEALTH AMERICA OF GREATER HOUSTON INC

Mental Health America of Greater Houston (MHA of Greater Houston) is a Houston-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit founded in 1954 that provides community-based mental health education, early identification, care navigation, training, and advocacy across the Greater Houston region and increasingly across Texas. The organization operates programs for children and schools, veterans, workplaces, and the general public (including Care Connect, an online provider search and helpline), offers free anonymous mental health screenings, and runs training initiatives to integrate mental health into primary care and schools. MHA of Greater Houston also leads statewide collaborative policy work on school mental health and partners with hospitals, foundations, insurers, and civic organizations to expand access to culturally responsive services.
