About Us
Who We Are
The Mental Wellness Networking Alliance (MWNA) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to breaking the stigma surrounding mental health through education, connection, advocacy, and access to resources.
Shortly after the second teenager was lost to suicide in the aftermath of the tragic shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School on February 14, 2018, that rocked the communities of Coral Springs and Parkland, Florida, Coral Springs Mayor Scott Brook formed a mental wellness networking alliance with several other community leaders.
As he had lost his own mother to suicide when he was 23 years old, he felt compelled to do something for and with the community in order to save lives and promote awareness of mental health resources in order to break the stigma that’s often associated with getting mental help. MWNA normally meets once a month in Coral Springs.
