Non-Profit

We are a motivated group of mental health consumers that continuously strive to be the best we can be regardless of our mental health challenges. They say that those in a good place in their own recovery are often in the best place to reach out to someone else needing to take their own  journey of recovery.  So come on in, be our guest, have a look around. We also offer peer support, information, acceptance, individual and group activities, and a warm and welcoming atmosphere.  We are here for anyone needing peer support recovery or information about the consumer movement.

 

All members and staff have been consumers of mental health services at different points on their own path to recovery. We are peers in what is known as a the consumer movement. Ones level of participation is determined by his or her own goals. Individuals choose forms of assistance he or she need as they take part in the center”s community of support and safety.
