Resource Guides for Creating Consumer-Run Organizations
During 2007, Washington Institute for Mental Health Research and Training (WIMHRT) offered consumers trainings on how they could start their own organization, including how to establish start-up funding and sustain long-term financial stability. These trainings resulted in two resource guides: Building Sustainable Consumer Run Organizations and its companion, Funding the Consumer Run Organization.

Toolkit for Creating Mini-Grant Programs
In December 2007, the Mental Health Transformation Grant in partnership with the WIMHRT announced an extension to the Mini-Grant Program for mental health consumers and family members.
For state and community organizations, the Consumer and Family Evaluation Mini-Grant Program Toolkit serves as a guide for developing and implementing their own Mini-Grant Program.
