How We Help
Supporting complex mental health needs
1 in 4 of us experience mental health problems. Some of us will experience severe mental illness (SMI) with 1 in every 105 of us having a mental health diagnosis classified as severe. For many, there are other factors that can further complicate living with a severe mental illness, which can significantly impact people’s day to day lives.
Mental health need is considered complex when people are living with a severe mental illness, as well as another condition or complicating factor. For example, someone may have a diagnosis of schizophrenia, and a learning difficulty, or they may have psychosis and also be homeless with a history of substance abuse.
Our mission is to help people with complex mental health needs live a life full of hope. Here are some of the ways your generous donations help us to do that.
