NYMHCA’s Statewide Network of Regional Chapters
NYMHCA regional chapters provide an opportunity for mental health counselors, students, and counselor educators to meet, network, expand their professional development, and provide collaboration and mentorship to their peers.
Our goal is to empower chapters to lead locally while staying connected to a strong statewide network.
Regional chapters are open to current NYMHCA members in good standing. You may also join a regional chapter at the same time as you join NYMHCA.
