Program Mission
The Mission of the Program is to help people with severe mental illnesses live successfully in the community, and reduce inpatient psychiatric hospitalizations.
Individualized Services are provided to meet specific client needs. A team of providers collaborates to deliver integrated services of the recipients’ choice, monitor progress towards goals, and adjust services over time to meet the recipient’s changing needs.
Comprehensive Community Treatment is based on the Assertive Community Treatment model with modifications for smaller rural communities.
