The Mental Health Association of Westchester and the Mental Health Association of Rockland invite you to celebrate the Power of Connection with us this fall! Please join us as we toast to our future and recognize our inspiring honorees: Meryl A. Allison, Dr. Leslie Citrome, and Glenn Liebman.

The generosity of community partners like you is essential to our work. Your contribution supports a myriad of services, such as subsidizing the cost of therapy, bridging the gap in funding for early intervention programs for young adults experiencing symptoms of psychosis, expanding our commitment to children’s care management and therapeutic programs, providing suicide prevention and postvention training and support – and much more.

Community support across Westchester and Rockland has uplifted our work for generations. As we join forces and merge our organizations, we build upon nearly 150 years of combined history to increase access to care, offer a life-changing array of integrated services, and reduce stigma associated with mental health challenges.

Today. Tomorrow. Together.
