Overview

Mission

Our goal is to create opportunities for critical dialogue, mutual support, and advanced education and training for those in the mental health field. It is our mission to proliferate an understanding of mental health care that acknowledges and addresses the numerous contexts in which our mental health exists. We are dedicated to understanding not only the role of personal traumatic experiences but also collective ones, manifested through structural injustices and oppression which have deep historical roots in our society.

What it reported doing in 2025

Training - through training and education, idha disseminates knowledge about transformative mental health frameworks, strategies, and tools. Our goal is to foster "unlearning" that which we have internalized from oppressive systems and encourage people to rethink mental health education from a place of lived experience and multiple voices. Our training provides opportunities for individuals to encounter both theory and practice and develop connections to movements and modalities that exist both within and outside of the current mental health system. Trainings are facilitated in partnership by individuals with lived experience and individuals with professional training who collectively carry many dynamic perspectives and experiences. Organizing and implementation are supported by staff and volunteers. Activities are primarily conducted online via a remote/virtual learning infrastructure.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 69% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Revenue has declined or grown slowly and expenses are high relative to revenue.
