Mental illness affects all members of the Greater Houston area in some way; according to a report issued by the University of Texas School of Public Health, more than 30% of Houstonians are within the close social network of a person with a severe mental illness.

Mental Health America of Greater Houston is a nonprofit organization delivering community-based programs, workplace initiatives, direct support services, and veteran-focused efforts that help individuals and families build resilience and access the support they need. Founded in 1954 and rooted in Houston, MHA of Greater Houston is increasingly serving communities across Texas, responding to growing demand for accessible, culturally responsive support.
