Behavioral Health
Supporting the mental health of immigrant communities through culturally responsive care.
Behavioral Health Services provides compassionate, goal-oriented, and individualized support focusing on improving self-sufficiency through assessment, planning, linkage, advocacy, empowerment, coordination, and monitoring progress. In addition to navigating legal proceedings, SJC seeks to improve access to behavioral health assessment, brief treatment, social integration, and increase wellbeing for our clients.
Platicas con Proposito
Community sessions open to all - clients and non-clients alike. Platicas con Proposito provides a safe space for immigrant communities to connect, share experiences, and access mental health support in a culturally responsive environment.
Know Your Rights
Our Behavioral Health Team offers Know Your Rights workshops in partnership with community organizations that not only provide critical legal information but also address the anxiety, grief, and emotional toll that can come with discussions about detention and deportation. Led by our Behavioral Health Team, these workshops offer a space to process the emotional weight of these issues while gaining the knowledge and tools to navigate difficult situations.
Immigration Court Accompaniment Volunteer Program
Our Immigration Court Accompaniment Program offers volunteers the opportunity to support and stand in solidarity with individuals navigating the complex and often intimidating immigration court system. Volunteers are trained to offer respectful, non-legal assistance, bridging gaps between clients and the resources they need to navigate the court process with dignity. Become a part of this impactful effort to make a difference in the lives of immigrants facing legal challenges.
Volunteer FormHealing Circles
Our Behavioral Health Program offers virtual Healing Circles for SJC staff, creating a supportive space for education, guidance, and open participation. These sessions provide valuable tools to manage stress, anxiety, and emotions in a safe environment.
