About us

The agency was founded in 1979 by Petra Medelez, a survivor, who out of her own home answered crisis calls and housed victims and their children. Su Casa remains dedicated to Petra’s belief that “one right step leads to another,” therefore we have expanded her services to include not only immediate shelter from danger but also drop-in services, community education and awareness presentations, and transitional housing.
