Missoula County Local Advisory Council on Behavioral Health
Your Community — Your Voice
“Behavioral health” includes mental health, substance use, and social functioning. Mental illnesses, substance use disorders, and other impediments to individuals’ quality of life are all behavioral health issues.
JUNE IS "PRIDE MONTH"! It is also "Men's Health Month," and it includes the observance of "Juneteenth."

Who We Are and What We Do
The Missoula County Local Advisory Council on Behavioral Health is a group of community members, advocates, and activists, many of whom have lived experience with behavioral health issues and all of whom serve voluntarily on the MLAC.
The MLAC provides a forum for citizens to address behavioral health issues that affect the community. We keep the public informed, we relay questions and concerns to providers and elected officials, and we advocate on behalf of the behavioral health community. The MLAC organizes and participates in community events, keeping the issue of behavioral health in the spotlight. We speak to neighborhood groups and to local organizations, working to combat the stigma attached to behavioral health issues and emphasizing the possibility of recovery.
Please Join Us!
Together we can transform Missoula’s behavioral health system into one that is person-centered, recovery-oriented, responsive to and respectful of people with lived experiences, their families, and other community stakeholders. The MLAC does not discriminate on the basis of race, religious affiliation, age (18+), gender identification, sexual orientation, ethnicity, physical abilities, or any other category protected by local, state, and/or federal law.
OUR MEMBERS AND SUPPORTERS INCLUDE:
Individuals with mental illness and/or substance use disorders
