Mental Health Minnesota

Minnesota Warmline - a statewide safe, anonymous and confidential phone/text line that provides people who are working on their mental health recovery with an opportunity to connect with others, find support, reduce social isolation, and talk about their concerns. The Warmline uses a peer-to-peer approach, and is answered by a professionally trained staff of Certified Peer Specialists who have first-hand, personal experience living with a mental health condition. The Warmline had 14,000 calls/texts in 2021, and is a tool that helps many people before they reach a point of crisis.

Public Policy/Advocacy - takes place at the legislative and governmental levels in order to influence public policy and funding of mental health care in Minnesota; on the County level through "grassroots" activities; in the private sector with managed health plans; and nationally through the organization's relationship and affiliation with Mental Health America.

Education - serves to educate individuals living with mental illness, their families, educators in secondary schools and colleges, students and youth, members of faith communities and synagogues, employees and employers, professional providers, and the general public in order to reduce the stigma associated with mental illness, encourage mental health early screening and treatment, and to promote mental health and wellness.
