Organizations Filed Purposes:
OUR MISSION IS CONNECTING, EDUCATING AND ADVOCATING TO PROMOTE MENTAL HEALTH FOR EVERYONE. DURING THE PAST YEAR WE SERVED 282 CLIENTS AND THEIR FAMILIES.
WE PROVIDE COMMUNITY NAVIGATOR SERVICES TO RESIDENTS OF CHARLOTTESVILLE, ALBEMARLE COUNTY, AND THE SURROUNDING CENTRAL VIRGINIA AREA. THESE SERVICES ARE INTENTIONALLY DIVERSE IN ORDER TO MEET THE UNIQUE NEEDS OF EACH CLIENT, BUT THEY ALL SHARE THE COMMON GOAL OF CREATING STABILITY FOR PERSONS WITH MENTAL ILLNESS TO HELP THEM LIVE HAPPIER, HEALTHIER, AND MORE FULFILLED LIVES. COMMUNITY NAVIGATORS FACILITATE ACCESS TO LOCAL MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES BY PROVIDING INFORMATION AND REFERRAL ABOUT AVAILABLE TREATMENT PROVIDERS FOR INDIVIDUALS WITH SIMPLE NEEDS. FOR CLIENTS WITH MORE COMPLEX SITUATION, WE PROVIDE INTENSIVE, FLEXIBLE, AND COMPREHENSIVE SUPPORT TO CONNECT THEM WITH PARTNER AGENCIES THAT PROVIDE NEEDED SOCIAL SERVICES (HOUSING, EMPLOYMENT, FOOD, MEDICAL CARE, ETC.) IN ADDITION TO MENTAL HEALTH TREATMENT. COMMUNITY NAVIGATORS ALSO PARTNER WITH STAKEHOLDERS IN THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM TO PROVIDE EDUCATION AND ADVOCACY TO ENSURE THE NEEDS OF PERSONS WITH MENTAL ILLNESS ARE MET WITHIN THAT SYSTEM. ADDITIONALLY, WE PROVIDE CLASSES AND WORKSHOPS DESIGNED TO HELP PERSONS WITH MENTAL ILLNESS LIVE IN THEIR HOME COMMUNITIES SUCCESSFULLY. OF THE 282 CLIENTS WE WORKED WITH IN THE LAST YEAR, 90% ARE TRAUMA SURVIVORS, 80% ARE UNINSURED, AND 70% ARE INVOLVED IN THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM. DESPITE THESE CHALLENGES, WHILE WORKING WITH US 85% OF OUR CLIENTS REPORTED MAKING SIGNIFICANT PROGRESS TOWARD THEIR RECOVERY GOALS. THIS IMPRESSIVE OUTCOME IS ATTRIBUTABLE TO THE HARD WORK OUR CLIENTS ARE WILLING TO DO TO IMPROVE THEIR LIVES AND TO THE INTENSITY, FLEXIBILITY, AND COMPREHENSIVENESS OF THE SUPPORT WE ARE ABLE TO PROVIDE THEM.
