Community Support Advocates: Providing Comprehensive Support for Persons with Disabilities
Community Support Advocates (CSA) is a non-profit organization that provides comprehensive support to individuals with mental illness, intellectual disabilities, or other developmental disabilities. The organization was founded in 1979 and has since been dedicated to helping people with disabilities gain access to housing, medical services, social, vocational, and educational services.
At CSA, we believe that every person deserves the opportunity to live a fulfilling life regardless of their disability. We understand that living with a disability can be challenging and overwhelming at times. That's why we offer a wide range of services designed to meet the unique needs of each individual we serve.
Our Services
Housing Assistance
We understand how important it is for individuals with disabilities to have safe and stable housing. That's why we offer assistance in finding affordable housing options that meet our clients' needs. We work closely with landlords and property managers to ensure that our clients are treated fairly and have access to all necessary accommodations.
Medical Services
Accessing quality medical care can be difficult for individuals with disabilities. At CSA, we provide assistance in finding healthcare providers who specialize in treating people with mental illness or developmental disabilities. We also help our clients navigate the complex healthcare system by providing advocacy services when needed.
Social Services
Social isolation is a common issue among people living with disabilities. At CSA, we provide opportunities for our clients to connect with others through social events and activities such as art classes or group outings. We also offer support groups where individuals can share their experiences and receive emotional support from others who understand what they're going through.
Vocational Services
Finding meaningful employment can be challenging for individuals living with disabilities due to discrimination or lack of accommodations in the workplace. At CSA, we provide vocational training programs designed specifically for people living with mental illness or developmental disabilities. Our goal is to help our clients develop skills that will enable them to find employment opportunities that match their interests and abilities.
