Vision

We are social activists.

Our true work is rooted in the real life of our community. We honor each individual’s authority while promoting accountability to the whole. We offer our stories, our experiences and our gifts to form a powerful collective wisdom.

Recovery is the expectation.

Individuals renew their strengths by exercising the rights and responsibilities of citizenship. They use their authority to determine the future and add richness to the mosaic of life.

Community inclusion is the cornerstone of recovery.

We insist that every individual is welcomed as neighbor, friend, co-worker and family. By

challenging poverty,

discrimination and intolerance, we create opportunities that promote connectedness.

MHA Village, an adult mental health services program, has evolved since its inception in 1990. Originally called Village ISA (Integrated Services Agency) our first mission statement reflected our focus on hope and persistence. Our mission has been revised to honor the evolution of our culture and emphasize our two part purpose as service providers and change agents.

Mission

To assist people with mental illnesses, recognize their own strengths and power to recover their lives and achieve full participation in community life.

To encourage system-wide adoption of the practice and promotion of recovery.

Our Guiding Principles remain the same with a particular emphasis on the final principle, Hope. Additionally, a Vision of our role in our community has been developed.

This is who we are. For more about what we do please explore this site.
