MISSION - WHAT WE DO

DBSA Tennessee offers peer-based, wellness-oriented support and empowering services and resources available throughout the state of Tennessee. As independent affiliates of DBSA in their communities, DBSA chapters offer peer-run support groups across the state where you will find comfort and direction in a confidential and supportive setting, and where you can make a difference in the lives of others. The selection of serv ices offered differs by chapter, depending upon the needs of its participants. What sets DBSA apart is that we are a lifeline to people that have no hope. Brilliant people who are unable to understand their debilitating moods. DBSA gives them a fellowship of people who understand, because they too have had experienced that pain. DBSA tells those who are very alone and without hope that they are not alone. We tell them to “hang in there”, that life will get better. Not being or feeling alone can change a life.

VISION - GOALS AND ASPIRATIONS

DBSA recognizes the unique ways identity, culture, and access affect people living with mood disorders. We strive to create safe and inclusive spaces for individuals to feel empowered on their own path to wellness. DBSA seeks to create equitable access to peer support services and mental health resources and advocate for all individuals with a lived experience with a mood disorder, regardless of cultural and social identity or systemic barriers.

SERVICES - HOW WE DO IT

DBSA aims to address the gap in access to mental health care by providing peer-led support groups, holding more than 20,000 support group meetings annually.
