We coordinate and integrated care across services and healthcare locations. Southeast provides healthcare for the homeless community including people who have been previously homeless or living in transitional housing.

Southeast operates over 50 programs and services. We are celebrating our 40th anniversary this year. In 2005 Southeast opened the Fresh A.I.R. (Artists in Recovery) Gallery. Fresh A.I.R. Gallery's mission is to exhibit the work by individuals affected by mental illness and/or substance use disorders. Through art, we educate the community and work to break down the stigma of mental illness and/or substance use by bringing focus to the artist vision.

2017 was an extremely rewarding year at Fresh A.I.R. Gallery (Artists in Recovery.) Exhibits have featured the work of artists from across the country, all in different stages of recovery from their respective illness. Among other talented artists, our exhibits showcased the intricate and humorous sea creatures of sculptor Kristin Morris and the playful robots of mixed media artist David Leonard. In May, we partnered for the first time with the Martin de Porres Center to curate an exhibit in honor of Mental Health Awareness Month. And in July, Fresh A.I.R. Gallery opened SEEN Studios #21 in the thriving Franklinton arts district.

SEEN Studios, a shared studio space where artists can create their artwork and further their careers in the arts. SEEN Studios is made possible by a generous grant. Since July of 2017, SEEN Studios will occupy a 1,100 sq. ft. studio within the Chromedge building in Franklinton. SEEN Studios provides a valuable resource for Fresh A.I.R. Gallery artists who seek a dedicated space to create and a clean, safe working environment. It also aims to facilitate artist development through workshops and discussions. SEEN Studios is a place for collaboration, artistic inspiration, and learning.
