Information and Referral
Mental Health Alliance distributes general information on mental illness to the community in a variety of ways: community fairs, newsletters, public forums, Speakers Bureau, and via the Directory of Mental Health Services in Monroe County, which lists mental health professionals in the community and their specialties. The focus of these educational efforts often changes to reflect pressing mental health issues.
