Welcome to the Department of Mental Health!

The individuals and families we support in Vermont's communities want the same things we all want: safe homes, close friends, loving relationships, good health and something meaningful to do each day. Our job is to help them succeed.
 

The Department of Mental Health continues to focus on its vision for self-determination, empowerment, recovery and resiliency. It means being responsive to the needs and preferences of consumers and families. The vision challenges DMH to change the culture, philosophy and values, and to embrace fully the concepts of recovery and resiliency.
