Recovery is at the very heart and soul of our work at the Mental Health Center of Denver (MHCD).
We believe people can, and do, recover from mental illness. We are recognized nationally for our successful, ground-breaking approach to mental health treatment. Here our consumers are involved in shaping their own recovery and given the chance to regain control of their lives. See Robert's story.
Recovery takes on many meanings but for most it means appropriate and compassionate treatment for a mental health problem so that the individual can get back to living a happy and productive life. That's what we provide at MHCD...

MHCDs Gifts of Joy Holiday Gift Drive
Twenty dollars is enough to bring joy this holiday season
Gifts of Joy is the Mental Health Center of Denver’s (MHCD) holiday gift drive for the needy children, teenagers and adults we serve. We believe that no one should feel alone at the holidays. In the spirit of the season, we collect your gifts, cash and gift card donations and provide them as holiday gifts to those who would otherwise not receive one. We call these donations Gifts of Joy.
Nearly everyone served through our Adult and Child & Family programs is indigent and cannot afford holiday gifts for their children or themselves. Your gift donations spread joy to these deserving children, teenagers and adults and make their holidays so much brighter.
Cash and gifts cards still needed for adolescents and adults
Thanks to your generosity, we have received enough unwrapped gifts for our young children, but cash and gift card donations are still needed for our teenagers and adults. Donating is easy. Twenty dollars is enough to bring a smile to someone’s face
Pick up an extra $20 gift card or two at Target, K-Mart, WalMart, King Soopers or Safeway and bring them to:
The Mental Health Center of Denver main office
4141 East Dickenson Place,
Denver, Colorado 80222
(East Dickenson Street is located between Iliff and Yale just east of South Colorado Blvd.)
Monday – Friday
