Each day, more than 40,000 New Yorkers with serious psychiatric disabilities and their families depend on the safety and support provided by mental health housing programs in their communities. Now, more than ever before, it is crucial for these residents to have a secure place to call home, and ACLAIMH needs your help. 

These life-saving programs give residents the skills to be more independent and provide the stability needed for their recovery. However, these programs have been severely underfunded for decades while operating costs have continued to rise, a situation that has become drastically even more critical due to the additional burdens posed by this health crisis. 

Funds donated to ACLAIMH will be used to:

- Provide continuing education training to mental health professionals across New York State through ACLAIMH Events.

- Work with ACLAIMH member organizations to provide input on community-based mental health housing programs & their residents.

- Fund the Bring It Home Campaign which exists to:

• Educate policy-makers about the financial needs of community-based mental health housing programs, which are more acute due to the current health crisis.
• Develop and share materials across New York to promote the important mission and benefits of community-based mental health housing programs, to ensure understanding that these programs save lives and save money.
• Coordinate Bring it Home campaign events.
