Our Vision

A city where all individuals, regardless of insurance, socioeconomic, and immigration status, have access to services accompanying them in their journey to heal and thrive.

Mission Statement

Centro Sanar’s mission is to accompany community members by providing accessible mental health services.

What We Realized

Our collective 45 year experiencing came from being a part of and witnessing the innate power in creating spaces of healing.

We recognized the need for an alternative model of service delivery.

We realized we couldn’t be emancipatory in a space built on oppressive hierarchy and ego.

We support those who are on the front lines of community organizing and advocacy efforts.

Commitment to collective healing.
