The National Mental Health Consumers’ Self-Help Clearinghouse, a national consumer technical assistance center funded by the federal Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, is proud to announce the launch of the first-of-its-kind Directory of Consumer-Driven Services at http://www.cdsdirectory.org .
Consumer Driven-Services (CDS), also known as peer-support services or programs, promote self-determination, empowerment, and recovery. They foster a vision of consumer participation in all aspects of life, including meaningful employment, education, and relationships with friends and family. They may be found in a range of settings, from large mental health service agencies to grassroots volunteer efforts.
The new searchable Directory is the nation’s first public Internet database on the myriad consumer-driven mental health service and support programs across the country.
The purpose of the Directory is to provide consumers, social scientists and service-providers with essential resources on CDS, including background materials, contact information, pertinent research findings and discussion by leaders in the field. Visitors to the Directory site can search by name, locality, or program type to retrieve up-to-date information on leading CDS around the country. In addition the site builds on the expertise of the Clearinghouse network in providing multiple technical assistance resources to foster the development of new and ongoing programs, and other CDS-related materials, many available by free download.
Any and all such programs in the United States are invited to apply for inclusion in the Consumer-Driven Services Directory via the Web site at www.cdsdirectory.org/contact.html . Application materials may also be requested by writing to
