Request info here: https://bit.ly/3qSOV6S. The Community Mental Health master’s program at CIIS trains students to become licensed therapists and leaders in empowering disenfranchised communities. Our graduates are a driving force in meeting the needs of and creating change for populations who have been underserved and overlooked by traditional counseling services.

Community Mental Health students learn to address systemic issues within a patient’s community and surroundings that affect mental health. Many of our graduates are proactively involved with public policy, community organizing, defending the rights of underserved groups, and public health.

The Community Mental Health degree program provides students with a strong theoretical background with an emphasis on practical application:
