About the Campaign for Community Wellness: In an effort to coordinate and leverage key mental health initiatives and ultimately, improve mental health care in Placer County for all people, the Campaign for Community Wellness was created in the Fall of 2006. Led by a Steering Committee of over 50 community members, advocates, providers, consumers and family members, the Campaign for Community Wellness is working to coordinate and implement the Mental Health Services Act (MHSA) and the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) programs in Placer County. Our hope is that by coordinating where we can, we end up with better services for more people. Innovation, collaboration, evidence based practices, culturally competent and consumer-guided services are our approaches The result? We hope, that through the Campaign efforts and outreach, people in Placer County struggling with mental health issues feel less stigmatized, live independent, fulfilling lives and feel supported in their recovery efforts----no matter where they are on that path.
