About Us

đź’š Welcome to Cochran Helps

Cochran Helps is a grassroots nonprofit organization dedicated to empowering individuals with mental disabilities by providing practical support, resources, and a sense of community. Our mission is to ensure that everyone—regardless of diagnosis or background—has access to the help they need to live with dignity, independence, and hope.

Founded with compassion and lived experience at its heart, Cochran Helps offers assistance with everyday needs like navigating healthcare, finding safe housing, accessing food, and building meaningful relationships. We believe in walking alongside people as peers, not projects—meeting each person where they are and advocating for a better, more inclusive world.

Whether you’re seeking support or looking for ways to serve, Cochran Helps is a place where care is real, and community is possible.

You don’t have to be “fixed” to be loved. You don’t have to “prove” your pain to be heard. Cochran Helps exists because your life matters — exactly as it is.
