Rebuilding Lives Through Community & Care

We provide housing, healthcare, and hope for over 300 individuals with psychiatric diagnoses in the Western Cape, South Africa.

Community Mental Health and Psychiatry Foundation (CMHP) is a non-profit organisation offering long-term psychiatric care, housing, rehabilitation, and support to individuals across Cape Town and the Boland area.

With over 110 staff and multiple residential homes, we focus on dignity, independence, and purpose, built on Psychiatric Rehabilitation principles.

What We Do

  • From small community homes to structured facilities and frail care, we offer safe, long-term housing and support.

  • Our on-site clinic and multidisciplinary team provide primary psychiatric care and early intervention to reduce hospital admissions.

  • Our accredited academy trains the next generation of caregivers through a hands-on, full-time course.

Whether you want to volunteer, train with us, or make a donation, your support helps us change lives.
