Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

To drive community solutions promoting mental health. Through innovative collaborations, education, and advocacy, we lead change to promote mental health and prevent mental illness in the Greater Houston region.

Activities or mission (Part I)

See Schedule O. To improve community mental health by removing barriers, providing education, and linking to services.

  • Since 1954, Mental Health America (MHA) of Greater Houston has prioritized mental health as central to overall well-being and success. We provide mental health screenings, referrals, educational programs to reduce stigma, and specialized training for child-serving organizations. We also offer peer support for veterans, particularly those in the justice system, and support mental health workforce development in primary care settings.See Schedule O for continued detailsIn 2024, MHA of Greater Houston launched a Youth Advisory Board with 11 youth representatives from seven Houston-area school districts to guide mental health initiatives. We also graduated 16 mental health professionals from our Behavioral Health Consultant Certificate Course, equipping them to work in primary care.Utilizing peer support and collaborative partnerships with the Harris County Veteran Treatment Courts and the Texas Veterans Commission, veterans are receiving the peer support and services needed to reintegrate into civilian life. We also ensure that justice-involved veterans have the tools needed to return to home and health. In 2024, our veterans team made nearly 3,000 referrals, offering hope to our heroes. Our Mental Health Literacy programming reached over 1,400 individuals, offering training on mental health, trauma, crisis coping, and self-care in 2024.Our public policy efforts focused on preparation for the 89th Texas Legislative Session, advocating for increased funding and addressing mental health service gaps. We also contributed to the Texas Education Agency's Mental Health Task Force and added a policy fellow for research and community engagement.We continued to serve as a member of the Houston Area Suicide Prevention Coalition, working to close gaps in suicide prevention in our community. The coalition will obtain its own FEIN in early 2025 and operate as a separate entity in 2025 and beyond. Through our outreach, 16,188 Greater Houston Region residents utilized Mental Health America's online, free, and anonymous mental health screenings. These screenings provide a direct, real-time measure of mental health and overall well-being in the Greater Houston Region. Upon completing the screening, each person can access tools and other resources to support their mental health.In 2024, we began rolling out our Behavioral Health Navigation Services, a multi-tiered initiative to increase individuals and families' access to behavioral health (mental health and substance use) services and support through offering online resources, live referrals, and personalized support. As part of this effort, we launched a Wellness Hub, a searchable database of free and/or low-cost wellness options to support well-being. We also offered tools, resources, articles, and podcasts to assist individuals on their mental health journey.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
