Transforming Mental Health Through Community
The Hogg Foundation envisions a future in which the people of Texas thrive in communities that support mental health and well-being. We believe it’s possible to transform how communities promote mental health in everyday life. We support research and learning, practice and implementation, and policy initiatives to achieve this vision.
Mental Health Awareness Month
For the month of May, the Hogg Foundation is celebrating Mental Health Awareness Month. Throughout the month we’ll be highlighting stories of recovery, strides in mental health policy, and the many things our grantee partners are doing to transform mental health in their communities.
Success Story
We’re looking back at the Ima Hogg Scholarships program. Established in 1956, the scholarship aims to strengthen the mental health workforce, with a special emphasis on social workers.
