We are a network of diverse organizations, collaborating to improve outcomes in mental health and substance use in the City of Charlottesville, and in Albemarle, Fluvanna, Greene, Louisa, and Nelson counties.

About Us

 Our Coalition’s more than 20 member organizations work together toward goals and objectives that improve behavioral health for all. 93% of our members report that they have created a connection that improves their work.

Our Work

The Coalition promotes behavioral health and wellness through planning, advocacy, and increased access to effective services. Our work strives to make a positive difference in the areas of substance misuse, trauma resilience, anti-racism, public awareness & stigma reduction. 

Get Involved

One in five adults encounters a mental health concern each year. In Virginia, that means 1.12 million adults have experience with mental health challenges — more than four times the population of Richmond.
Everyone has a role to play to improve mental health and wellness!
