OUR MISSION

At the Devereux Center, we believe in helping people to Dream Again. Our day center helps the mentally ill and homeless to meet their basic needs, so they can find the hope and dignity to break the cycle of homelessness and depression.

OUR VISION

We will achieve our mission by:

  1. Developing sufficient revenue sources and a sustainable professional operation that will keep our day center open at least five days a week.
  2. Strengthening and improving relationships with appropriate community services, local government, public safety partners and our neighbors.
  3. Creating sustainable housing appropriate for and affordable to people with mental illness.
  4. Implementing needed services for people with mental health issues such as mentoring and advocacy.
