Many of our Coalition's events are educational and take place in partnership with organizations committed to community health and successful aging.

Our Coalition members are committed partners with extensive reach into public and professional networks. We are able to provide education and training to audiences of all kinds.

We seek to develop a broader network by partnering with other organizations and businesses statewide.

By sharing our expertise and resources,
we are able to offer high quality programs throughout Maryland at low to no cost.

Please consider how we might partner with your organization or community to share important mental health and aging information. Call Kim Burton, Director of Older Adult Programs at the MHAM to discuss potential events at 410.235.1178 ext. 210, email kburton@mhamd.org.
