It has the privilege and responsibility of maintaining the vitality of the organization, including its financial well-being and efforts toward meeting its mission. The board is comprised of officers (President, Vice President/President-Elect, Treasurer, Secretary, and Immediate Past President) and board members at-large. A maximum of 14 people may serve on the board. Board members serve three-year terms that begin at the time of the Annual Meeting (usually mid-April), and they may serve two consecutive terms.

To promote quality treatment and prevention of mental illness globally as well as locally
To develop and implement culturally competent ways to combat the stigma of mental illness in all societies
To educate people with mental illness, their caregivers and providers, and the general population about mental health and mental illness in diverse cultural communities
