The Center for Mental Health Promotion
The Center for Mental Health Promotion is a project housed in the Institute for Disability Research, Policy & Practice at Utah State University. The CMHP conducts research, provides training and disseminates resources related to mental health. Areas of focus vary over time based on funding and community input, but our approach to this work remains consistent: we use a strengths-based lens to work collaboratively with communities to help create more inclusive environments that are useful for helping people live life more fully.
