Peer-led expansion HALI is the largest and most successful peer-run mental health organization in NY, serving over 6,500 consumers annually. This leadership position and proven impact create opportunities to position partners as supporters of scalable peer-based services and to explore funding or co-development of expanded programs with hospitals, clinics, and county agencies.

Community programs With over 30 self-help groups and a broad slate of services including vocational opportunities, transportation, information and referral, and educational programs, HALI presents multiple entry points for program sponsorships, training collaborations, and technology-enabled service delivery enhancements.

Strategic partnerships Recent and ongoing collaborations with Stony Brook Medicine, the Bi-County Peer Workforce Empowerment Conference, and county mental health organizations indicate a receptiveness to partner-driven initiatives and grant-funded projects, offering avenues for co-investment and joint marketing of peer-support solutions.

Awards and visibility Industry recognition such as the Marty Smith Memorial Award and participation in impact and inclusion events raise HALI’s credibility. This can be leveraged to secure sponsorships, grant funding, and partnerships with corporate CSR programs seeking alignment with mental health and community empowerment.

Funding posture With annual revenue in the mid-range and a staff size of 11-50, HALI appears nimble yet scalable. This suggests opportunities for technology vendors, training providers, fundraising platforms, and capacity-building services tailored to mid-sized nonprofit peers looking to optimize operations and broaden reach.
