Hesperian’s newest book Promoting Community Mental Health shares stories from across the United States and presents tools and strategies developed to better understand and combat the country’s mental health crisis.

This new resource illustrates the interlinked nature of mental, physical, and community health and highlights ways that traditional knowledge, social bonds, de-escalation, violence prevention, and organizing support mental wellness and healthier communities.

Promoting Community Mental Health provides understanding, support, new ideas, and hope as we chart a path forward together. We are collecting feedback from community organizations for the forthcoming Spanish-language edition.
