Donate to the AIMS Center

The AIMS Center works at the intersection of research, implementation, education, and innovation to improve mental health care for entire populations. As a self-supporting center within the University of Washington,  donor support furthers our impact and allows us to continue and expand this important work.

Invest in Scalable Evidence-Based Mental Health Solutions

The AIMS Center at the University of Washington helps healthcare organizations implement proven approaches that make mental health care more accessible, effective, and integrated into everyday healthcare.

Through research, training, implementation support, and innovation, we help transform how behavioral health care is delivered, improving outcomes for patients and strengthening healthcare systems around the world.

Your gift helps us innovate, respond to emerging needs, and extend the reach of evidence-based mental health care.

AIMS helped us build a solid foundation in our CoCM department. The excellent education, personable trainers, accountability, etc were all valuable in starting off on the right foot on this sweet journey.

Advancing the Future of Mental Health Care

The evidence suggests the future of behavioral health care depends on:

  • Integrated care models
  • Workforce development
  • Data-driven decision-making
  • Health equity
  • Sustainable implementation strategies
  • Strong partnerships across healthcare systems

Donor support helps us continue leading this work and expand access to effective mental health care for the communities that need it most.

Your Support Matters

As a self-supporting center within the University of Washington, the AIMS Center does not receive direct funding from the university. Our funding comes through competitive grants, contracts, service partnerships, and your philanthropic support.

Donor funding allows us to:

  • Launch new initiatives
  • Invest in innovation
  • Develop resources before traditional funding becomes available
  • Provide training scholarships for professionals serving traditionally underserved communities
  • Explore emerging challenges in behavioral health
  • Expand programs to reach more organizations and communities

Your generosity enables us to pursue opportunities that would otherwise be out of reach and accelerate improvements in mental health care delivery.

The AIMS Center provided great resources, templates, and training. The support from their team—especially Monica Harrison—was outstanding. They offered timely responses, clear communication, and strong coaching that really helped set us up for success.
