Mental Health Association of Butler County

Mental Health Association of Butler County Just exactly what is the Mental Health Association? Thus began the movement, which later became known as the Mental Health Association.

The Mental Health Association is a non-profit organization of dedicated volunteers and staff who are interested in and concerned about the issues of mental health and those who struggle with mental illness. The organization began in the early decade of the 20's in the mind of a former mental patient, Clifford Beers. Having spent some time himself in the wards of a mental hospital, Beers was painfully aware of the stigma and powerlessness that accompanies mental illness. Having recovered and rejoined his community, he raised his voice to speak on behalf of other patients who were still hospitalized. Beers invited others to "volunteer to advocate on behalf of those with no voice to be heard" and was joined by countless others across the nation. The mission of the organization was to provide advocacy for those who could not speak for themselves and public education to the community-at-large.
