We're a harm-reduction, trauma informed, culturally focused community-based organization that heals trauma at the somatic level. We serve the underserved and work hard to bring about social justice. The goal is to build a peaceful and just community throughout Minnesota. We attempt to match families with staff from the same culture.

All services are tailored to the unique cultural needs of the family.

Our grant money is limited, and the need continues to rise. We do not bill insurance for rapid response therapy and need to pay our immigrant, bilingual clinicians! We're also impacted by UCare closing, Medicaid issues, and ICE activity leading to closure of programs. Thanks for sharing this link and helping us help the community.

TONIGHT: we are getting in formation to protect our neighborhoods from ICE- block by block.

We’ll share lessons from Minneapolis, where communities organized at the neighborhood level—parents coordinating school drop-off patrols, neighbors looking out for one another, and networks ready to mobilize when ICE showed up.

Minneapolis showed what’s possible when communities are organized and now we’ll explore how to start that same groundwork where you live.

With recent events, many of our neighbors are afraid to go to work right now and need help paying rent. We believe in neighbors helping neighbors, so our partners at West Side Community Organization (WSCO) have created a hyperlocal rent assistance fund in response. Please help support this mutual aid effort for vulnerable households in St. Paul by donating today. Donations will go straight to families in St. Paul’s West Side (55107) who are facing financial hardship, helping them stay in their homes and weather these challenging times. We will share information soon on how to apply. This is a new effort and may be adjusted as the needs in the community continue to evolve. If you have questions about the rent assistance application process or eligibility, please email rentfund@wsco.org.

𝗪𝗲 𝗸𝗲𝗲𝗽 𝘂𝘀 𝗵𝗼𝘂𝘀𝗲𝗱. Help neighbors today by making a gift at https://secure.givelively.org/donate/west-side-citizens-organization/west-side-rent-assistance or by scanning the QR code. With federal funding at risk once again, your support makes a real difference. If you would like to provide support in other ways, visit https://www.wsco.org/donate to see how else you can help the community.

UPDATE: As of 1/26/26 @ 17:00 we are now at $3254/5k!
Things in Minnesota are heavy right now. Many people have voiced that they want to do more but cannot be boots-on-the-ground. There are many other ways to help the cause right now. Many POC are staying in their homes due to fear of being targeted. We have immigrants that are struggling with funds while also trying to protect their families.

We are running a mutual aid with a goal of $5k to help assist POC and immigrants that are unable to afford to stay home. Funds will be used for rent, utilities, groceries, etc. Whatever they need, we want to lighten their load. This is a tangible way to assist these community members. Even $5 starts to add up quickly with enough help. If you can't contribute, please share to your networks or pages. Encourage others to get involved. Be safe and stay aware 💜

Many of our friends and people we serve at RWC are vulnerable and unable to pay their rent. If they are evicted, one can only imagine what will happen.

Minnesota friends, please spread the word and share this link. All funds will go directly to pay landlords and utility companies, and receipts will be provided!

The government is NOT going to step up. We take care of each other. Mutual aid is key.

Our Story

Minnesota CarePartner began in 2013. We saw a need for in-home services to address the needs of individuals who have a difficult time making it to an office due to medical issues, mental health conditions, financial issues and/or lack of transportation. We felt it would be clinically beneficial to meet people in their natural environment and where they are most comfortable as a way to optimize goal achievement. Alternatively, we offer office therapy for those who prefer to receive services outside of their home. We intentionally and consciously serve various communities of color, sexual orientations, income levels and focus on marginalized populations. We serve the underserved and work hard to bring about social justice. The goal is to build a peaceful and just community throughout Minnesota. We attempt to match families with staff from the same culture. We partner with child protection agencies to provide safe supports and services throughout and after the process through supervised visitation, child and family skills and in-home therapy (individual, family, couples counseling). We tailor services to the unique cultural needs of the family.
