DBSA California

The mission of the Depression and Bipolar Support Alliance of California (DBSA-CA) is to help local support groups grow and prosper, encourage the development of new support groups in areas of California where they are needed and assist individuals who are in need of support to find a support group in their area.

We hope that you will find the information on this website helpful for your mental and physical well-being. Here you will find state-wide support group listings, links to resources and websites, links to books and other suggested reading materials, newsletter PDF files, symptoms of depression and bipolar disorder, information about our annual conference and more to assist you in your recovery process.
