Peoples Oakland Inc.

About this Organization


Peoples Oakland has been a cornerstone of mental health recovery in Allegheny County for over 50 years, empowering adults living with serious mental illness and co-occurring disorders to lead meaningful, independent lives. Our peer-led model offers psychiatric rehabilitation-including site-based, mobile, and social rehab-along with housing and benefits support, vocational services, community integration, and educational panels. Our Bridging the Gap (BTG) program supports individuals returning from incarceration with critical reentry services that reduce barriers and promote stability. We serve over 200 members annually, achieving outcomes such as reduced psychiatric hospitalizations, increased housing and employment stability, lower recidivism, and greater community engagement. By centering lived experience and community, we help people rebuild their lives and find hope, purpose, and belonging.
