HISTORY

Mental Health Transformation Alliance (MHTA) was developed in 2011 as a federally certified national, family run organization by a group of families with children and youth with mental health needs in NE TN; an area generally weak in family and youth involvement in the planning, development, implementation, and evaluation of services to high risk and needy populations. 

MHTA received multiple SAMHSA grants including the Statewide Family Network Grant. Mental Health Transformation Alliance (MHTA) provided technical assistance to other Statewide Family Network Grantees such as: Delaware, California and North Carolina.  In addition, the MHTA has received several state contracts with systems of care and expansion grantees. 

MHTA has provided support, training, and assistance to thousands of families and paved the way to expand partnerships between all systems serving families, children, and youth.
