To provide mutual support, self-help, advocacy, education, information and referral services for individuals who acknowledge having significant problems in their lives due to mental illness and who are seeking to take  responsibility for their own growth and recovery while supporting each other. We actively advocate for positive change within the traditional mental health system.

Our Mission:

123 4th Street NW, Charlottesville, VA 22903  (434)-979-2440

PATH

On Our Own PATH services are also in partnership with Region Ten counterparts. This outreach effort focuses on individuals dealing with mental health issues who are also homeless or at risk of being homeless. The goal of PATH is to help them navigate the mental health system so they can receive appropriate  services. Persons involved in PATH have typically not responded well to traditional supports or interventions. They usually need more intensive services than the center alone provides. Our work in partnership with Region Ten is a necessary and vital part of our consumer support outreach.
