HistoryEnriching lives through partnership designed to strengthen our communitys capacity to support recovery and resiliency"

The Los Angeles County Department of Mental Health is the largest county-operated mental health department in the United States, directly operating programs in more than 85 sites, and providing services via contract program and DMH staff at approximately 300 sites co-located with other County departments, schools, courts and other organizations. Each year, the County contracts with more than 1,000 organizations and individual practitioners to provide a variety of mental health-related services.

The DMH is committed to serving and improving the lives of those individual in our community whom are diagnosed with mental illness. Making a difference in the lives of individuals and their families is at the very heart of the DMH. Partnering with clients, families and our communities to create opportunities for Hope, Wellness and Recovery is our vision and our mission.

Making a difference begins with each Los Angeles County resident. We ask that you join us in making a difference by ending Mental Health stigma and discrimination in our communities and the workplace by encouraging those in need of medical care to seek immediate mental health care.

Why We Chose ThisAll four members of the group have learned how to provide and successfully practice our employers motto of enriching lives through effective and caring servicesAs public servants we understand the importance of helping less fortune members of the community. Especially the many that happen to have mental health issuesThe Department of Mental Health requires the same type of effective and caring service for their clients which is why we choose their website.A second reason for choosing this website is because it would be easier for people with potential mental health issues to have a simpler straight to the point type website to navigate when searching for information
