Founded in 1988, Casa Milagro offers a structured home environment for up to 18 months to help women who have a history of psychiatric disabilities learn to life more independently. In a team-oriented environment, each woman contributes to the well-being of the group. Through extensive case management, we teach and reinforce the value of a healthy lifestyle that includes exercise, nutrition and adherence with medical regimens and drug therapies.
We also link each woman with the community resources she needs to progress toward a healthier, more independent lifestyle. When a woman leaves, she can continue to receive support and encouragement through our After Care program, which includes visitation, art therapy and interaction.
In the past we have collected items for the eight women including gloves, scarfs, toothpaste, toothbrushes, and other personal items. Last year at Tim and Pam's we collected a huge amount of things and Pam said the women really we grateful for our support.
