OUR GUIDING PRINCIPLES
Our guiding principle for building a sustainable and impactful organization is our firm belief in the power of connecting, collaborating, and mutually supporting people and communities.
We cannot do this work alone. Changing entrenched systems of power and privilege is the work of the collective.
Central to this mission is our commitment to ensuring that all voices—especially those historically marginalized—are heard, valued, and empowered.
We see our role as a catalyst for change through direct action, aligned partnerships, and community-building.
WE BELIEVE IN
THE POWER OF CONNECTION
-
We build collective strength through aligned partnerships, shared leadership, and empowering people.
CENTERING MARGINALIZED VOICES
-
We believe real change begins with those most impacted — they must lead the way.
COLLECTIVE ACTION FOR SYSTEMIC CHANGE
-
We move beyond awareness to action, working to shift entrenched systems of power through community organizing, advocacy, education, and policy change.
SUSTAINABILITY FOR LONG-TERM IMPACT
-
We build for the next generation — creating durable change, not just short-term results.
OUR GOAL
DECRIMINALIZE MENTAL ILLNESS &
ADVOCATE FOR MENTAL HEALTHCARE JUSTICE.
At The Miles Hall Foundation, we work to transform systems that fail people in mental health crisis. Since our founding in 2019, we’ve been committed to advocacy, education, and action that centers impacted families—so that no other family has to endure the tragedy and trauma that the Hall family experienced.
We believe in a future where care replaces criminalization, and where communities are equipped to support people living with mental illness with dignity and compassion.

OUR MISSION
To honor the life and legacy of Miles Hall, we advocate for non-police responses to mental health crises, educate to dismantle mental illness stigma and racial bias, and support individuals and families most impacted by law enforcement’s excessive use of force during mental health emergencies.
