Our Mission is to provide education and advocacy for people with psychiatric and/or developmental disabilities, with or without physical disabilities, so that they can achieve equal opportunities in all aspects of life.
We have two major program components: Advocacy and Education/Public Awareness.

Litigation
Referral Services
Legal consultations on: Employment (including ADA reasonable accommodations), Health Care (including Medi-Cal and Medicare), SSA Work Incentive Programs, and Post-Secondary Education
EDUCATION AND PUBLIC AWARENESS SERVICES
We host seminars in the Bay Area on such disability-related topics as employment, Social Security, housing, post-secondary education, health care, and multiculturalism.
We produce and distribute training materials including videos (DVD and VHS) and CDs. Our most recent training video, "Understanding Employees and Job Applicants with Psychiatric Disabilities" (2008), addresses psychiatric disabilities in the workplace from a medical and vocational perspective, and comes with a workbook for usage in group training situations. "Understanding" is a valuable tool for Human Resources managers, Vocational Rehabilitation counselors and other organizations and professionals working with or on behalf of people with psychiatric disabilities.
We can provide Guest Speakers on a range of topics related to disability.
Trainings on-site at your organization can be arranged on a variety of disability-related subjects.
