THE MENTAL HEALTH COLLABORATIVE
Tackling Bloomington’s mental health crisis together
About the Mental Health Collaborative
The Mental Health Collaborative is a multiyear, multimillion-dollar investment dedicated to enhancing mental health outcomes in and around Monroe County. By bringing together business leaders, service providers, nonprofits, lawmakers, clinicians, and concerned citizens, we aim to address the significant and complex challenges that impact mental health access and support.
About our work and progress to date
In 2024, Bloomington Health Foundation announced the launch of the Mental Health Collaborative at a gathering of more than 100 diverse stakeholders including local policymakers and service providers in an effort to drive local and state-level action. Bloomington Health Foundation committed $1 million to the effort as we work to raise additional funds and build partnerships. In tandem, several working groups have identified underlying challenges and are developing solutions related to mental health care and substance abuse treatment and prevention in greater Bloomington.
