Overview
Mental Health Resources is a private nonprofit providing mental health and substance use services across five counties in Eastern New Mexico. Its clinicians offer outpatient counseling, psychiatry, medication management and addiction treatment, with crisis response and telehealth extending access to care. Community teams provide peer support, rehabilitation, care coordination and help eligible clients obtain and maintain housing, without paying their rent or utility bills. Payments for services and charitable giving support its work, and an income-based sliding fee schedule helps people who cannot afford care. Reorganized as Mental Health Resources in 1976, the agency is headquartered in Clovis, New Mexico.
