Mayor's Office of Community Mental Health

Description

We are working toward a NYC where more NYers get the mental health treatment they need and fewer mental health needs become crises. To get there, we oversee strategies to close critical gaps in mental healthcare so every NYer, in every neighborhood, has the support they need. We partner with city agencies and nearly 200 non-profit organizations to implement innovative programs that reach hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers every year. We reach people with the highest need - those with serious mental illness, those harmed by trauma, and those living in historically underserved neighborhoods. And we eliminate barriers to care for all New Yorkers by providing free services in over 200 languages, regardless of insurance or immigration status.
