DBSA Chapter Management

Welcome DBSA chapter leaders! This Chapter Management Web Site provides tools, examples and systems that have been shared by other chapters, and developed by the DBSA Chapter Relations Team. Other methods may also work well for your group so you would like to share an example with DBSA, contact us at chapters@DBSAlliance.org.

DBSA Chapters exist to improve the lives of people living with mood disorders on a local level.  As independent affiliates of DBSA in their communities, DBSA chapters offer peer-run support groups, present educational opportunities, provide community outreach services and advocate on behalf of patients with mood disorders. Chapter participants will find comfort and direction in a supportive setting, and can make a difference in the lives of others.
