Our Mission: Our mission is to promote optimal mental health through awareness, advocacy and education.

Our Vision:  A society where mental wellness is the foundation of a healthy community.

MHA Lancaster County is a provider of free one-to-one support, education and advocacy services for adults and children. Attend one of the free mental health support groups for adults (virtual meetings during Covid-19). Get help navigating to local treatment and resources for individuals, families and inmates re-entering the community. Attend QPR training or request customized education (or speaker/panelists) for groups, students, businesses and special events. Request monetary assistance for otherwise uncovered mental health costs. Volunteer to become a Compeer Friend to an adult in mental health recovery. Get involved in the Suicide Prevention Coalition of Lancaster County program by attending educational meetings and volunteering your time to this important cause.

We work with individuals, seniors, families, inmates and youth of all ages.
