ROAD TO A
BRIGHTER FUTURE
Mental Health America of Utah is a place where individuals and families can come for resources, support, and social connection.
WHAT WE DO
We provide peer support and outreach for individuals and families affected by mental illness. We also offer education, support and advocacy – in person and virtually.
Our programs and activities are designed by peers for peers. We work together to help each other reach our goals and fulfill our potential. We believe that as persons who have experience living with and recovering from mental illness we are in the best position to offer support to others who are on a similar journey. We invite you to join us in bringing about positive change!
SERVICES
We're changing the delivery of mental health care
PEER SUPPORT
We believe in peer support!
We provide peer support services to all Utahns! We have a drop-in center (opening soon) located in Salt Lake City where we provide peer support and group activities. We also connect virtually to anyone in need throughout the State.
We also provide peer support to vulnerable and marginalized populations. We currently have a homeless peer support outreach program in Salt Lake County and we do outreach and peer support for individuals dealing with trauma from polygamy culture in Southern Utah.
Take a survey
We would like to know more about your experience with the Utah Mental Health System.
We want to know from the experts (you) on what is working well and what are gaps or areas of improvement. This will help us to better serve you and understand the needs of our communities as well as assist us in our advocacy efforts.
If you can take a few minutes to complete this simple survey, we would be grateful. Please note that at the end, there is space for you to provide any detail you would like to share. The survey is anonymous.
OUR APPROACH
Collectively We Choose To Change The Narrative
We are commonly referred to as the “mentally ill” or our diagnosis rather than our names. MHA UTAH believes that the presumption that we do not know what is in our own best interest consigns us to lives emptied of quality, vitality and dignity. community.
GET INVOLVED
We’re looking for people who want to be part of a network of peers, mental health advocates, or financially support our community.
