Who We Serve: individuals and their families

MHR clients deal with illnesses such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, severe depression, schizoaffective disorder and borderline personality disorder. Many clients also deal with co-occurring substance use disorders and have suffered from multiple traumas. Although there are many medications that help treat symptoms, MHR clients have been robbed, by these disorders, of daily living skills, coping strategies and techniques for dealing with the added injustices of societal stigma and misunderstanding. MHR staff work with individuals, families and groups to rebuild the strengths and competencies of each client.

MHR operates 8 programs in three metropolitan counties in the Minneapolis-Saint Paul area using treatment modalities that research has shown to be effective in working with individuals who have a mental illness. These treatment models include assertive community treatment, psychosocial rehabilitation, case management, integrated mental health and chemical dependency services and permanent supportive housing.
