Always consult a trained mental health professional before making any decision regarding treatment choice or changes to your treatment. Never discontinue treatment or medication without first consulting your physician, clinician or therapist. If you are feeling like you want to harm yourself or others, please consult a mental health professional or other health care professional immediately. Online resources are not meant to (and cannot) replace the specialized training and professional judgment of a health care or mental health care professional.
Wayne Holmes Mental Health Coalition is a non-profit corporation that provides a place for people with mental health concerns and psychiatric disorders to help one another along the road to wellbeing and recovery. We do this through self-help, peer support, education and advocacy activities.

The Mental Health
Coalition is supported
by limited operational
funding from the Wayne
Holmes Mental Health
And Recovery Board.
In June the members of Advocates and NAMI of Wayne-Holmes Counties voted to join forces to become the Wayne Holmes Mental Health Coalition. This is an exciting change as both groups have the same general goals of supporting persons with mental health problems and their families, education, advocacy and outreach.
The new organizational structure will not change any of the Advocate’s current support, discussion or activity groups. Those will continue with the same schedule as has been over the past year. If you haven’t participated in one of the groups recently, we encourage you to attend and experience the fun and healthy things that are going on, all with a focus is on recovery.
With this change, we will soon hire an additional part-time staff person to coordinate public relations, marketing, development and the educational programs for the organization.
In the next newsletter, we will highlight the support and educational activities and opportunities that the Wayne Holmes Mental Health Coalition is involved in and begin to introduce new board members to you. In the meantime, please come join us at any of the activities listed below and stay in touch.
