Our Story
The Association for the Advancement of Mental Health (AAMH) was founded in 1974 by dedicated parents seeking better lives for their developmentally disabled children. Initially focused on those institutionalized, AAMH has since expanded its mission to include comprehensive care for de-institutionalized mentally ill adults. Today, AAMH provides a continuum of psychosocial rehabilitative services, outpatient counseling, and psychiatric support for children and youth.
