Community Outreach

Just as diabetes is a disorder of the pancreas, mental illnesses are medical conditions that often result in a diminished capacity for coping with the ordinary demands of life. Serious mental illnesses include major depression, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), panic disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and borderline personality disorder. MiCasaCorp.org is the link between institutionalized care and the community. The good news about mental illness is that stability is possible.

Mental illnesses can affect people of any age, race, religion, or income. Mental illnesses are not the result of personal weakness, lack of character, or poor upbringing. Mental illnesses are treatable. The difference between Mi Casa Es Su Casa (MCESU) and others in the industry is that we believe that there are no expendable people.

Since the 1960’s, the “deinstitutionalization” of mental hospitals sought to put mental healthcare into the community. Over the past 40 years a vacuum has been created and the mentally disabled have suffered homelessness, addiction, sexual abuse, instability, human trafficking and the list goes on.

Help us to reach out to this sector of our community. Contact Mi Casa Es Su Casa today to discuss how we can work together to provide the support this community needs.
