Services
Brief description of Services provided by DMHSA
With the passage of Public Law 17-21, the Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse was created to:
Provide comprehensive mental health, alcohol and drug programs and services for the people of Guam;
To continually strive to improve, enhance and promote the physical and mental well-being of the people of Guam who experience the life-disrupting effects of mental illness, alcoholism and drug abuse or are at risk to suffer those effects and who need such assistance.
To encourage the development of privately-funded community-based programs for mental health, drug and alcohol abuse, in particular those programs that employ qualified local residents.
Finally, as those services become developed and/or available in the Territory, the government of Guam may gradually phase out of such operations.
