DBSA Boston (Depression and Bipolar Support Alliance of Boston, formerly known as MDDA-Boston) is a non-profit, self-help support organization run by volunteers, for people diagnosed or who feel they have or experienced mood disorders such as depression and bipolar disorder, and for family and friends.

DBSA members come together to support each other and share information with others who are in similar situations. Mood disorders impact millions of people and their families and friends every year. Coping with these disorders is difficult enough, but coping alone can be even tougher. Come, join our online support groups.

2024 is our 39th year of service to the community!

DBSA Boston is a volunteer-run non-profit 501(c) (3) organization that depends on your support.   We invite you to become a paid member or to make a tax-deductible donation. Thank you for your support!
