Our mission is to build supportive communities for those facing mental health challenges through peer-led support groups and educational outreach in Tarrant County. At Depression Connection for Recovery, we provide a place and a process where change and recovery are possible. We present the opportunity for individuals to improve their health and wellness, live a self-directed life, and strive to reach their full potential.
Our help begins in providing the skills and tools needed to re-connect or regain the fullness, sense, and purpose in living, that depression has taken away. Meetings are held online via Zoom as well as located in the communities of Ft. Worth and Tarrant County. Our groups are lead by Peer Support Specialists and/or Qualified Mental Health Professionals (QMHP's).

Occasional anxiety is a normal part of life. You might feel anxious when faced with a problem at work, before taking a test or making an important decision. Anxiety disorders involve more than temporary worry or fear. For a person with an anxiety disorder, the anxiety does not go away and can get worse over time.
If you know someone who may be depressed, it affects you too. The most important thing you can do is help your friend or relative get a diagnosis and treatment. You will feel more confident in helping someone obtain treatment if you become familiar with mental health education yourself. You may need to make an appointment and go with the person to see the doctor.
