Maryland Coalition of Families (MCF) is a pioneering nonprofit organization that has been supporting families in Maryland since 1999. As the first and only statewide organization of its kind, MCF provides family peer support to individuals and families who are dealing with mental health, substance use, or problem gambling challenges. Their dedicated Family Peer Support Specialists, who have personal experience caring for their own loved ones, offer emotional support, resource connection, and systems navigation at no cost to those in need. MCF also advocates for improved services and systems to better support individuals with behavioral health challenges, as these issues are of utmost importance to their families and loved ones. MCF's mission is to connect families through shared experiences, drawing on their staff's firsthand knowledge of caring for someone with a behavioral health issue. They provide emotional support, share knowledge, build skills, and connect Maryland families with resources and opportunities within their own communities. With a focus on children's mental health, adult mental health, substance use, early childhood, problem gambling, and LGBTQ+ young adults, MCF has made a significant impact by offering individualized support, organizing support groups and workshops, and providing thousands of resources to families for various needs. Their commitment to elevating family voice through policy and legislative advocacy further strengthens their role in improving the lives of individuals and families facing behavioral health challenges in Maryland.Generated from the website
