About us
InvestInMentalHealth.org is a nonprofit organization dedicated to increasing access to Mental Health First Aid training and building communities equipped to respond to mental health challenges.
We believe mental health is community health.
Through public trainings, partnerships with schools and nonprofits, and local initiatives like #First100, we empower everyday people with practical tools to recognize signs of mental health and substance use challenges — and to respond with skill, care, and confidence.
Our work is rooted in one guiding belief:
When more people are trained, more people are supported.
Be trained. Be ready. Break the stigma.

- Use a practical action plan to support someone in need
- Connect individuals to appropriate professional and community resources
