Our Mission
The Althea Foundation takes on difficult and neglected mental-health issues that are life defining, in an effort to lessen the trauma and increase resilience and recovery. Our vision and values are based on these three core beliefs.
Harnessing New Tools, Technology and Thinking
-
We focus on solving problems.
-
We blend research and education and employ evidence-based solutions.
-
Our tools are designed to be economical and effective.
-
Our technology enables anywhere, anytime accessibility to much-needed information.
Talking About Mental Health
-
We are interested in universal mental health issues that are sidelined socially and financially.
-
These issues are hard to articulate and difficult to solve.
-
But they can be eased/addressed when the right levels of compassion, awareness and education are applied.
Supporting People in Their Moments of Vulnerability
-
Our process is simple: we identify the problem, articulate it and facilitate with a means to address it either through self help aids or direct research into the cause.
-
We believe in talking about mental illness and building resilience because it means dealing with issues, not just coping.
