We believe in
Holistic treatment
We believe that an integrated approach is critical to improving the long-term wellbeing of people with mental health issues. Our service users and their families can access different types of support to address their needs, including counseling, psychiatric medication, support groups, medical care, and vocational skills training.
Ending institutionalization and providing community-based care
We believe people with severe mental disorders should not be confined to mental hospitals and other institutions. Through our community-based care model, we assist people at risk of being institutionalized and those who have been living in mental hospitals, to get treatment while building meaningful lives in their communities. We help families to care for their loved ones in their homes.
Reducing stigma, and promoting social inclusion
We promote awareness around mental health in order to reduce discrimination against people with mental health disorders. We work with schools, employers, and local organizations to make sure that people with intellectual and psychosocial disabilities can participate in all aspects of life.
Human rights and empowerment
We help clients and their families to understand their rights under the CRDP, and work with clients to advocate for better treatment.
