Heart to Heart


What is Heart to Heart?
Heart to Heart is an organization of volunteers that are dedicated to helping people with serious mental illness live fuller, happier lives.

Becoming a Heart to Heart Volunteer 
As a Heart to Heart volunteer, you have the opportunity to become a friend to someone with whom you can go shopping, to the library, a movie or to the park for a few hours of trusting companionship each week.

What are the benefits of becoming a Heart to Heart volunteer?

  • Through the simple action of friendship you can help someone,whose illness has limited their options, to lead a more fulfilling life.
  • You will learn about serious mental illnesses and the challenges of the people who live with these disorders.
  • Inspiring people, whose lives may be limited to their participation in their mental health treatment, to become more productive and better integrated into our community.
  • You will discover your own ability to understand and empathize with the needs and problems of others.
  • Discovering the opportunity to be a friend to someone special.

Heart to Heart bridges the gap between the community at large and the population of people living with a mental illness by matching trained volunteers with people who are living with these disorders; individuals with a mental illness, who might otherwise find themselves on the outskirts of society, forgotten and lonely. They begin their integration back to society with the help of Heart to Heart volunteers.
