The Mission of The Miles Hall Foundation is support families by educating communities about mental illness and protect those impacted with mental illness from excessive use of force by law enforcement. We do this life-saving work to honor the life and legacy of Miles Hall, who was killed by the Walnut Creek police in June of 2019 during a mental health crisis. Our work falls into three categories, prevention, education, and advocacy.

To create a caring community where grieving families know they are not alone; to provide a safe place to grieve the death and celebrate the life of loved ones; to provide professionally facilitated support groups, individual counseling and special programs for grieving children, teens and adults; and to be the primary community resource for providing comprehensive grief support, advocacy and education.

To protect, assist and empower victims of family violence and sexual assault while challenging and changing social systems that tolerate and perpetuate abuse.
