🌍 World Mental Health Day reminds us that mental well-being starts early.

At MACMH, we advocate for the emotional health of infants, children, young adults and their families—because nurturing relationships, responsive care, and early support lay the foundation for lifelong resilience. 💚

Together, we can build systems that center connection, compassion, and community—starting from the very beginning. Give to MACMH today and support mental health education for all.

The Minnesota Association for Children’s Mental Health is facing a critical year-end funding gap.

Without your support, families could lose access to free mental health guidance, professionals may go without vital training, and children might not receive the care they need.

💙 In 2024, MACMH trained over 5,700 professionals who work with over 30,000 children and families across our state.

Every gift—big or small—helps keep these essential services alive.

Let’s break the stigma and build understanding. ADHD is more than just hyperactivity—it’s about how kids think, feel, and experience the world. Every child deserves support, compassion, and the tools to thrive.

💙 Every dollar makes a difference.

MACMH is working to raise $200,000 before the end of our fiscal year. This keeps our programs strong, our operations afloat, and events like the Infant & Early Childhood Multidisciplinary Conference thriving.

If all of our supporters gave just $10, we’d meet our goal together. 🌟
