About MI-Journey

STRUGGLING WITH MENTAL ILLNESS?
MI-JOURNEY DROP-IN CENTER CAN HELP...
We know about life with mental illness. We know it can be difficult because we’ve been there. We are unique as a mental health organization because everyone connected with MI-Journey has had a mental health diagnosis. We’ve been there and know what individuals are going through. We know what it’s like to be in a pit so deep and dark that there’s no light anywhere. We also know from experience that people can get better and genuinely live a great life.
