Mental Health America of Aiken County

Mental Health America of Aiken, Barnwell, and Edgefield bring together mental health consumers, parents, advocates, and service providers for collaboration and action. We provided public education, information, referral, support groups, rehabilitation services, socialization, and housing services to those confronting mental health problems. We also provide family advocate services to parents and children with severe emotional disturbances, and mentoring relationships for adults recovering from mental illnesses. We serve as a local leader in supporting and developing consumer-run initiatives and primary prevention programs. Finally, we strive to influence public policy at the local, state, and national levels to ensure fair and effective treatment for millions of Americans suffering from mental disorders.
