About Mental Health America of Los Angeles

Founded in 1924, we are one of the oldest nonprofit mental health organizations in the country.  We use four cornerstones: service, education, advocacy and training, to create opportunities for adults and young adults living with a mental health diagnosis to recover full, meaningful lives.  We serve Los Angeles County, California, with direct service sites in Long Beach and Lancaster.  Our service programs are based on our nationally recognized and replicated model of recovery.  We reach out to people living on the streets through our homeless services programs, one of which offers the unique provision of integrated mental and physical healthcare through our collaboration with The Children's Clinic. Our full-service partnerships provide multi-dimensional tools and resources to allow those we serve to live safely, successfully and independently in the community.
