Too Much Stuff Hoarding Behaviors Initiative

The Too Much Stuff Hoarding Behaviors Initiative was founded in 2014 after supporting our community in their recovery from Superstorm Sandy. Our team found community members were unable to rebuild their physical homes due to their emotional attachment of too many possessions. When we could not find the needed help, we began researching national best practices to bring to our area. Our mission since 2014 is to build a sustainable model for evidence-based hoarding interventions that are both client centered and cost effective. We strive to support and educate:
  • Individuals who collect and save too many things
  • Families and friends affected by stuff 
  • Clinicians and social service providers 
  • Professionals who work in individual's homes
From this unique four prong approach MHA strives to answer the "Help" calls made by 5% of the population. 

**Please note we are not a cleaning service and work with individual who meet the criteria for hoarding disorder.**
