Maryland Mental Health Coalition

Maryland Mental Health Coalition brings together over 20+ mental health organizations representing consumers, advocates, family members, service providers and mental health professionals. We are united in our mission to improve mental health access and service delivery for all Marylanders.

Since its inception in 1993, the Coalition has achieved numerous legislative and policy victories in mental health. These include passage of the Maryland Mental Health Parity Law and establishing a "carve-out" for mental health treatment from Maryland's Medicaid managed care system.

"The moral test of government is how well that Government treats those who are in the dawn of life, the children, those who are in the twilight of life, the elderly, and those who are in the shadows of life, the sick, the needy and the handicapped."

Hubert H. Humphrey

"There are, in every age, new errors to be rectified and new prejudices to be opposed."
