Inspiring Program

Hear from Mary Jones, LCMFT, LCAC, President & CEO of MHASCK, as she shares a powerful message about resilience, hope, and the importance of accessible mental health care for every person, at every stage of life.

Every Gift Creates Hope

Professional mental health care should never be out of reach because of someone’s age, circumstances, or ability to pay.

Every dollar raised through the Beautiful Minds Gala helps MHASCK deliver a comprehensive continuum of care across South Central Kansas, from counseling and crisis support to recovery services, housing, prevention, and long-term stability.

Because when access to care is possible, healing is possible.

Hope is possible.

And lives can change.
