ABOUT THIS PROJECT

The Mitchell Yancey Prevention and Recovery Coalition (MYPRC) and the Place-Based Public Health Program through UNC-Chapel Hill - Gillings and Mountain Area Health Education Center (MAHEC) have collaborated to create this website. The mission of this website is to catalog resources available to residents of Mitchell and Yancey counties in one easily accessible location. The website aims to improve community health and simplify access to support services for residents, providers, and volunteers.

NEED SERVICES RELATED TO MENTAL HEALTH OR SUBSTANCE USE?

​Partners Aligned Toward Health (PATH) creates a comprehensive Substance Use and Mental Health Resource Guide every other year. The guide includes both resources local to Mitchell and Yancey counties, as well as resources outside of the area. The most recent 2024 version is available for download as a PDF and is available in Spanish.

DO YOU PROVIDE SERVICES TO THE COMMUNITY OR NEED TO UPDATE LISTED INFORMATION?

Getting your information listed or updated on the website is quick and easy. We use Google Forms to collect information, and you decide which information will be shared with the public. If there's a section that isn't applicable to you or your agency, leave it blank. â€‹
