CONNECT ·2024 Grants ChallengeACCESS: Enhancing Mental Healthcare Connections
Annually, Mental Health Advocacy Services (MHAS) helps thousands of low-income Angelenos with mental health disabilities who aren’t accessing mental health care. They need MHAS’ help to address legal issues that impact their wellbeing (e.g., discrimination, consumer debt/fraud, barriers to securing benefits, and appropriate accommodations as students). They also often need connections to/facilitation of mental and behavioral health services, and that’s what our ACCESS project provides.
