COMMUNITY ALLIANCE for HEALTHY MINDS exists to engage the community in raising awareness of and support for mental health issues and suicide prevention, particularly among youth and young adults, through venues of Music, Arts, and Education.
Our next event is our Annual forum which is a place to share your story, your journey and meet others who have their own story and journey. Together we can change the landscape of mental health in our communities.
