General information about our services

For Clients and Families

It isn't easy re-establishing a way of life after mental health difficulties have led to some kind of crisis or even hospitalization. Sometimes a change in living arrangements is needed. Metro Community Housing Association provides the key to making the transition easier.

We offer a range of community based services enabling people to live in the community and maintain or improve their mental health. Our residential alternatives range from group homes to apartments to small option homes. Our range of services allows us to offer flexible support tailored to each individual. Our staff are trained, knowledgeable, and supportive, and we offer twenty-four hour emergency service. We also assist our clients in finding work and taking part in leisure activities in the community.

Since there isn't a time limit on how long a client can remain with our organization, we're available as long as the client needs us. With our assistance, people who have experienced mental health difficulties can get back on the road to independent living.

For Referral Agents

At Metro Community Housing Association we try to make our services fit the client rather than vice versa. Our referral process and thorough assessment result in the best possible match of client and living option. Our staff take a team approach to offering support and supervision.

They also assist clients in taking advantage of resources in the community so that clients can set up their own networks.
