ABOUT MENTAL HEALTH ASSOCIATION OF SAN FRANCISCO (MHASF)
MHASF is a mental health peer-run nonprofit located in downtown San Francisco and has been serving people and agencies across the Bay Area since 1947. As mental health consumers, we center the lived expertise of people with mental health challenges in our advocacy, education, and support programs. We believe that dignity and recovery in mental health are something everyone can experience. Our staff is dedicated to creating spaces for learning and healing around stigmatized and under-resourced areas in mental health-hoarding and cluttering behavior; post-hospitalization peer support; mental health and nutrition; peer mental health workforce development; and much more.
MHASF's core work is providing low-threshold, peer-based support services addressing underserved needs in individual, group, community-based, and telehealth modalities. We lead the San Francisco community in providing progressive, innovative training and technical assistance on recovery-oriented mental health topics for businesses, community-based organizations, employers of peer staff, and the general public. We also develop peer mental health workers and advocates through training, mentorship, and work and volunteer opportunities. People with lived experience of mental health challenges are strongly encouraged to apply to work with us!
OVERVIEW OF PROGRAM & POSITION
The Warm Line is a non-crisis phone and instant messaging center-managed and staffed entirely by people who have lived experience of mental health challenges-which provides information, resources, and emotional support to the people in California 24 hours a day.
