Overview

Mission

The mission of the Samadhi Center, Inc. is to end suffering from addiction, mental illness, and homelessness through person-centered, trauma-informed, and compassionate supportive services. Samadhis philosophy revolves around our use of Certified Recovery Peer Advocates (CRPAs), individuals with lived experience of addiction and mental health issues, to support individuals through all stages of their recovery. Samadhis long-term mission is to establish a complete continuum of care that starts with our direct outreach, calls to our 24/7 hotline, and walk-ins to our Recovery Community Center, and eventually leads to our outpatient treatment services, long-term peer support, supportive housing, and fostering of purpose through employment and education.
