About Adult Mental Health Advocacy

The Advocacy Alliance's advocates ensure that persons in the community who experience mental illness are heard, serve as their own spokespersons, and that the focus of their treatment, housing and employment is based on their individual needs for Recovery. Our advocates, including Certified Peer Specialists, also work at Clarks Summit and Allentown State Hospitals and in community adult psychiatric in-patient units, helping to see that persons understand their rights, their rights are respected, and their services are helpful.
