Our Story
Founded in 2008 by a dedicated group of community members, Carroll County Mental Health Advocates (CMHA) emerged to address the escalating mental health crisis in Carroll County. With representatives from various sectors, including law enforcement and treatment providers, CMHA was established to bridge the gap in mental health treatment by offering vital advocacy and support services. Over the years, CMHA has grown from a volunteer board to a robust organization, enhancing its programs through grants and establishing a Crisis Response Team.
