About
Founded in 2004, the Copeland Center has built a successful national organization that serves as the hub of an organic, grassroots movement of tens of thousands of individuals with lived experience of mental health challenges and hundreds of institutions using evidence-based peer support and self-help strategies for achieving personal and community-wide wellness and recovery. The Copeland Center is recognized as the world’s preeminent organization advancing the knowledge, skills, and values of evidence-based peer recovery practices.
We're a peer-run agency
This means that 90% of both our Board of Directors and our Team is people with lived mental health experiences. We bring our expertise as survivors of mental health and related systems to all our decision making, projects and the education we provide.
