Each year South Shore Mental Health Center provides programs and services to more than 2,800 individuals and families who live and work in South County. The Center relies heavily on the generosity and support from the community to continue to offer these much needed services. By making a contribution to the Center, you will be helping your neighbor, friend or a coworker who may be experiencing a mental illness. BE A FRIEND, MAKE A DIFFERENCE.

The Hope Fund is a vital and important campaign for the Center. Many individuals and families will not seek treatment because they are focused on feeding their families, paying their rent or saving to buy a warm coat for the winter. The Hope Fund offers them the opportunity to seek the care they need without worrying about the cost of treatment. Your gift to The Annual Hope Fund allows us to continue to provide services to individuals and families who are uninsured, in crisis and in need of mental health services.
