The mission of Tikvah is to empower adults living with a mental illness
so that they may feel accomplished, independent, and fulfilled.
We strive to create and support member connections
through social and educational programming.
Tikvah is a grassroots Jewish organization established by parents and mental health professionals committed to improving the quality of life for adults of all ages with mental illness.

Socialize. You belong here. You are not alone, get the support you need, right here, right now.
We reduce isolation, increase independence, and provide social opportunities.
