Washington, DC - Austin MHC is a non-profit based in Austin, Texas, dedicated to making a difference for people with lived experiences of mental health struggles, substance abuse, and homelessness. Austin MHC’s mission is to act as a resource for information and services regarding physical and mental health issues. Currently serving over 1,200 members each year, Austin MHC provides members with hundreds of support group meetings a year, thousands of meals and snacks for members and for the wider community, and countless other resources. Members also receive life-affirming services such as the peer mentor program, peer crisis recovery programs, peer support groups and bus pass program, to name a few. These services are meant to help members learn to embrace the long and worthwhile journey of recovery, learn to understand and achieve healthy living, become gainfully employed, and give back to their communities. Through programs at Austin MHC, members can conquer their struggles and achieve independence and fulfillment in a healthy and supportive environment.
As Austin MHC continues to grow and expand their uplifting community services, they realized they needed a robust and affordable data management platform to document their interactions with members and the community, to ensure safe and successful recoveries and to get an accurate understanding of how each of their services are being used.
