The Rhode Island Council of Community
Mental Health Organizations (RICCMHO) is a responsive resource
comprised of private, non-profit community mental health
organizations in Rhode Island. Established in 1979, the Council is an
effective conduit through whichmember organizationschannel their collective expertise to form a united voice of
public advocacy for all persons with mental illness.
Designed to coordinate the strength of its
members, the RICCMHO operates on the belief that the whole is greater
than the sum of its parts. This principle is activated through a full
range of diverse projects, each reflecting state-wide unity and
commitment to Rhode Island citizens living with mental illness.
