ABOUT US
SAM's creation was a direct response to witnessing how profound mental health inequities tragically challenge individuals and their communities day after day.
​
At SAM, we believe that sustainable change requires empowering the whole community. This is why SAM is dedicated to cutting edge research, community education, providing accessible resources, reducing stigma, and fostering understanding. We aim to improve the environment in which our clients live, ensuring that equity, access, and comprehensive care are available to everyone.
SAM is working to actively dismantle the systemic barriers that prevent people from receiving the mental healthcare that they need and deserve. We believe that mental healthcare is a basic human right that should be accessible to everyone. We believe that true healing requires more than just clinical intervention. It requires support that encompasses holistic care principles that address the mental, emotional, physical and environmental factors that all together define a person's well-being.
