National Schizophrenia Awareness Day is observed on July 25 to highlight the daily challenges of living with the diagnosis. It aims to educate the public, debunk harmful stereotypes, and combat the social stigma and isolation that patients often face. Brochures about Schizophrenia are available for free from DBSA WV by visiting our Morgantown office.

Please contact us about this and other free brochures on many mental health topics. Our resources are here for you.

The Morgantown Pride Block Party was held on Saturday, June 13th, 2026 at the Hazel Ruby McQuain Park in downtown Morgantown, WV. It was a great day full of spirit and togetherness, fostering a strong sense of community and nonstop Pride celebration! It was a great day spent bonding with everyone that stopped by our table.

For National Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder awareness month, we are promoting our PTSD literature. If you are in the Morgantown, WV area and interested in picking up free brochures about this and mood disorder topics, please visit our office.

We held our Open House event on Saturday, May 30 with door prizes and raffles, thanks to the many donations we received from area businesses and community members. Light refreshments and conversation were available, along with our ever-present supportive atmosphere. We were visited by existing group participants as well as several possible new ones. Family, friends, community members, professional care individuals, and perfect strangers also came by to support our mission. During the event, Denver Snider hung a plaque outside Andrea’s Room as our re-dedication to explain its significance. We cannot express enough gratitude to those who attended and contributed. Thank you all so very much.

We’re gathering more door prizes and raffles for the big event. Come visit our Open House event this Saturday (Tomorrow! Tomorrow!) May 30th starting at 10:30am (see flyer for details).

One-on-one peer coaches are available by appointment (in-person or online options available) as another resource to assist consumers in their recovery.
