“There is nothing more powerful than a community discovering what it cares about.”
Margaret Wheatley

Sixty years ago, the cities of Claremont, La Verne, and Pomona discovered that their residents’ mental health was what they cared about. They believed then that mental health is the foundation of a community.

In June 1960, the State approved the joint powers authority of Tri-City Mental Health Authority (Tri-City) to begin operating as the exclusive public outpatient mental health agency for the three cities. In the face of dramatic demographic, regulatory and economic changes, Tri-City continues to adapt to meet the needs of our three cities.

In this fiscal year, as Tri-City celebrates its 60th year, we are engaging in a process of reflection, evaluation and planning for our next decade.

This is where, why and how you come in.

Tri-City is hosting a two-day virtual conference in the second half of January that will position Tri-City to meet the ever-growing mental health needs in our three cities over the next one to five years … including the needs of your organization and the people it serves. Your participation in this event is critical to reinforcing the strong foundation that will ensure Claremont, La Verne and Pomona’s growth and prosperity in the years to come.

You will soon receive an electronic invitation from Brand Purpose. Brand Purpose is an organizational strategy firm with whom we’ve partnered to help prepare Tri-City Mental Health for a new decade of service to the communities of Claremont, La Verne and Pomona.

The invitation will include more detail but, for now, please accept my gratitude for your consideration and critically-needed participation. Feel free to contact me with any questions.
