Self-Help Centers

Program Description
Zephyr Self-Help Center and Esperanza Self-Help Centers are designated Navigator Program sites for walk-in support with navigation and access to services, resources, and support.  Our two self-help centers provide a safe, confidential, and supportive environment for individuals those living with mental health challenges. Operated by peers, these Centers provide support for individuals who want to take control of their lives. Individuals who share similar challenges have something to offer each other which cannot always be provided by traditional services. The Centers are run by welcoming and friendly staff, who provide services with respect and dignity. The Centers are drop in and you may stop by anytime during our open hours.
We provide the following services:

• Peer supported events, celebrations and social activities
