Mental Health Cooperative

For the 6th consecutive year, our Columbia office demonstrated the power of giving back. This Thanksgiving, our team assembled 21 complete holiday boxes for community members - supported by a local Food Lion, a generous church donation, and the dedication of our Care Managers. 🤍 Delivering these boxes directly to the individuals we serve allows us to build meaningful connections and foster gratitude - reminding us why community care is at the heart of our mission.

Mental Health Cooperative and our Partners in Care (PIC) program received the Father Fred Dettwiller Award for Public Safety from the Metro Nashville Police Department and the Nashville Police + Public Safety Alliance. This collaboration between MHC and MNPD has transformed how first responders approach mental health calls. Our goal is to ensure people receive compassionate care and vital resources without falling through the cracks. We’re proud to be part of a movement that’s redefining what safety and care look like in our community. 💙 Metropolitan Government of Nashville and Davidson County

Give what you can. Change what you see. Mental Health Cooperative is coming together to ensure our neighbors have what they need this season. Beginning November 5th, drop off non-perishable food items at any of our 12 MHC locations. Every can, box, or dollar helps us feed families across our serving communities. Together, we can make sure no neighbor goes without. 💙

Mental Health Cooperative stands united with our communities to ensure our neighbors have access to the food they need. Below you’ll find a list of local food resources available within our service areas. For a more detailed directory of food pantries and distribution sites, please visit our partners: • Second Harvest Food Bank of Middle Tennessee • Mid-South Food Bank • Chattanooga Area Food Bank In addition to connecting individuals with existing food resources, Mental Health Cooperative will soon launch our own community food drive and donation initiative to help fill pantry shelves and support families in need across the regions we serve. More information to come!

Mental health services remain a critical need for the neighbors we serve. Kudos to our partner, Mental Health Cooperative, for championing this vital community resource — and to Commissioner Marie Williams and the Tennessee Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services for making its funding possible.

Yesterday symbolized that hope truly starts here. We are deeply honored to announce the opening of our Children and Youth Crisis Stabilization Unit, a state-of-the-art facility dedicated to providing peace, safety, and healing for the young people of Tennessee.
