The Depression and Bipolar Support Alliance (DBSA) is the nation's largest consumer-directed nonprofit organization. The Cincinnati Area Chapters are part of a network of nearly 1,000 support groups throughout the United States and Canada.

DBSA Cincinnati was founded in August 2003. Our mission is to improve the lives of people who live with mood disorders. We do this by offering free peer-to-peer support groups where people with mood disorders and their families and friends can come to get the support, education, and tools they need to help them on their road to recovery.

Our Cincinnati organization includes a team of dedicated volunteers, and a research psychiatrist who serves as our advisor.

DBSA Cincinnati provides a network of support groups for people with mood disorders, and their families and friends. Please click on Support Groups for information about a DBSA support group near you.
