Business Outlook
Pros
Our mental health team was very communicative and supportive of one another. Our Director, Julissa Miro-Quesada was compassionate, hard-working and dedicated to supporting team members. (From what I understand, she has left the organization, but Veronica and Jennifer are also great). The approach to care is client-centered and strengths-based and further honors clients' cultural background and language needs.
Cons
A lot of mental health clients face multiple stressors, like poverty, language barriers, chronic health issues and/or homelessness. The lack of access to affordable housing and transitional housing for the homeless can be disheartening. Case managers are helpful but this is a larger systemic issue that's hard to address.
