01What it does

What Mental Health Association of Mercer County does

Mission

To provide public education regarding, and awareness of mental illness and to improve the quality of life for persons with mental illness and their family members.

As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.

Programs

  1. Overall program: the organization provides financial counseling and money management for consumers who need and request help. The organization is licensed by the social security administration. The organization is paid fees for these services. The organization services approximately 72 consumers. This program benefits both the individuals in the mental health system and the community where they live, such as landlords and utility companies by guaranteeing payment each month. Through the years, the organization has learned much about handling the various needs and desires of the participants. Each person is different, and therefore, each financial plan is set up differently, as to eventually meet each person's individual goals. The organization tries to help where needed to improve our consumer's living conditions, find solution to their service problems and assist in shopping for various needs.

100% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund MENTAL HEALTH ASSOCIATION OF MERCER COUNTY.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $23k arriving through sponsors registered in 1 state is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been.
