The mission of Mental Health America of Hawaii is to promote mental wellness through education, advocacy, and service. We endeavor to reduce the stigma of mental illness and improve the overall care, treatment and empowerment of those with mental illnesses - children, adults, elders - and their families.
Virtually every family in this country is touched in some way by mental illnesses - in fact, one in five people in America have a diagnosable mental health condition. Through our leadership, we expand mental health awareness, understanding, and action. We advocate to ensure that people with mental health problems have the quality services they deserve.

One of Mental Health America of Hawaii's most important activities is to vigorously advocate on mental health issues at the Legislature and with state agencies, to act as a voice for those with serious mental illness.
