Our History

Northwest Michigan Supportive Housing – NMSH (originally the Foundation for Mental Health) was founded in 1987 for the purpose of bringing resources and capacity to assist with the mental health needs in Grand Traverse and Leelanau counties.   Initial activities focused on psychiatric recruitment, evening counseling services and housing advocacy.  In the mid-1990's* the focus transitioned to the critical need for supportive housing for persons with mental health needs.   Since then, NMSH has grown exponentially and now serves clients in Antrim, Benzie, Grand Traverse, Kalkaska and Leelanau counties.  NMSH pairs affordable housing with case management services designed to help clients reach their highest level of independence.  NMSH contracts with nearly 40 landlords in the area to secure the "housing" in "supportive housing".


*The Traverse City State Hospital was closed in 1989

Our Mission

To provide permanent supportive housing to those experiencing homelessness and struggling with mental illness. 


The supportive aspect of our housing refers to the supportive services provided by NMSH, such as case management, budgeting, life skills and general home/health care. Our Case Managers walk side-by-side with our clients to help them improve their quality of life and gain the skills necessary to achieve their greatest level of independence.  The supportive services provided to NMSH clients assist the individual in overcoming daily barriers to maintaining their housing. NMSH believes these services are a vital  need for individuals and families to remain permanently and stably housed.

The need:

20-25% of people experiencing homelessness suffer from severe mental illness, compared to 6% of the general population. -NIMH
