It’s Getting Better All The Time! Mental Health Outreach Inc. was founded in 2001 to support individuals living with severe and persistent mental illness and those with additional human service needs.

  1. The ongoing challenges individuals with severe and persistent mental illness—as well as older adults, veterans and others—face in accessing assistance, information, and support.

  3. Persistent mental health and socioeconomic disparities that continue to impact communities.

Our goal is to help individuals access the tools and resources they need to address their challenges, make informed decisions, and foster their personal growth and development.

It’s Getting Better All The Time!

Goal: Our goal is to provide information, support, and encouragement—grounded in hope and faith—to individuals coping with the effects of severe and persistent mental illness or challenging life circumstances. While our services are open to all, we place particular emphasis on supporting adults within faith-based communities, senior citizens, veterans, African Americans, and individuals experiencing economic hardship. This focus reflects our awareness of the disparities affecting these groups and the importance of targeted, culturally responsive support.

Mission

“providing information and support while encouraging hope and faith”

Vision

Our vision is for all individuals to have access to the knowledge and resources that empower them to make informed decisions about their mental health and life journey, enabling them to fulfill their God-given purpose.

Service Goals

The mission, objectives, and goals of our organization have been shaped by several critical factors:

* The ongoing challenges faced by individuals affected by severe and persistent mental illness—and by many older adults—in accessing assistance, information, and meaningful support

* The significant role that religion and spirituality play in the lives of individuals who practice these beliefs

* The continuing mental health disparities present in certain communities
