Board of Directors

Empire Mental Health Support is comprised of a group of commited individuals who either live with a mental illness or are family members of those living with a mental illness. We are a support, education, and advocacy organization that serves the Sioux Empire area.

 

Our top priorities are to raise mental health awareness in our community, work alongside the justice system, and build connections with lawmakers and community leaders who want to work toward empathy and equal rights for individuals living with a mental health diagnosis, and the families and caregivers who care about them.

“You don’t have to struggle in silence. You can be un-silent. You can live well with a mental health condition, as long as you open up to somebody about it, because it’s really important you share your experience with people so that you can get the help that you need.”

Demi Lovato
