EveryMind is not just a name, it is the beginning of a conversation – a conversation about the value and potential of every mind. Because every mind is important and needs attention, care, and support. One in four people will deal with a mental health issue in their lifetime. That one person’s life impacts so many more – families, friends, co-workers, and neighbors to name just a few. We are committed to helping everyone recognize that taking care of one’s mental wellness is as important and necessary as taking care of one’s physical wellness. When one of us realizes optimal health, the entire community benefits. Since 1957, our highly trained, caring, professional staff has provided community education, advocacy and direct services. Through those services, we empower children, teens, families, older adults and the entire community to move past the mental health stigma and reach optimal mental wellness. If we want to live in a healthy community, we need to care for every mind.
