Since opening in January, Mental Health America of Central Carolina’s free mental health clinic in east Charlotte has treated 53 people.

The center opened in January 2023 and has goals to provide therapy services to minority communities and people without health insurance. 

Interested people can self-refer, be referred by other organizations and even walk in to receive treatment.

“We don’t want cost to be a barrier,” Kathy Rogers, MHACC’s executive director said. 

Rogers said the clinic supports clients “with an inability to pay,” specifically those uninsured and underinsured.

“We know access to care, particularly in communities of color, is an issue, and often the cost is a barrier,” Rogers said. “We believe everyone should have access to mental healthcare.”
