YMHC National Member Community

Build Your Mental Health Network

Looking to connect, grow, and make an impact? As a YMHC member, you are part of a unique community of up to 700 young people serving across diverse states, programs, and community settings.

About Peer Health Exchange

Peer Health Exchange (PHE) provides you with the opportunity to connect with others who share your passion for mental health and community engagement. Together, you’ll find support, share experiences, and learn from one another as you work toward making a difference.

By connecting with members across the country and trading what’s working, you'll build relationships that outlast your year. You’re joining more than a placement — you’re joining a national community doing the same work.
