RAICES CASA BIENESTAR
Outpatient Licensed Mental Health Clinic
Tri-fold Brochure

The Spanish Speaking Elderly Council-RAICES, through Raíces Casa BienEstar, offers mental health services to adults and families (18 years of age and older), without regard to their race, religion, creed, color, sex, handicapping condition, national origin, sexual orientation, or immigration status.   

 The program, through implementation of a culturally and linguistic competent service modality, focuses on the holistic needs of Hispanic, Black and low income adults.  This includes a full array of mental health services and support, crisis intervention services, treatment for depression and other mental illnesses, as well as, an aggressive community based outreach modality.  These services are complemented with case assistance/case management services and the provision of effective linkages with other service providers.

Clients are referred by other Spanish Speaking Elderly Council-RAICES programs, community agencies, hospitals and other medical facilities, schools, churches and/or courts.  Many are self referred or referred by other clients.

In keeping with RAICES’ mission, our goal is to provide culturally competent treatment designed to reduce symptoms, provide on-going support, reduce hospitalizations, improve and maintain social functioning and teach clients various coping skills that will enable them to successfully handle their daily activities.
