Program Highlights
Specialized programs designed around the people we serve.
There is no one-size-fits-all approach to wellness and recovery. Our programs are uniquely tailored to each individual’s needs — built from their strengths and experiences to create long-term resilience. Below are a few of the services designed to support wellness and recovery.
AOTS
Assisted Outpatient Treatment Services
AOTS provides intensive, community-based support for adults living with serious mental illness who have struggled to remain engaged in treatment or have experienced repeated hospitalizations, crises, or involvement with emergency services. Through a court-ordered treatment plan when appropriate, AOTS helps individuals stay safely in the community while receiving coordinated psychiatric care, medication management, therapy, case management, and connection to additional supports. The program focuses on improving stability, reducing hospitalizations, increasing treatment engagement, and helping individuals build greater independence and quality of life so they can achieve long-term recovery.

CSC
Coordinated Specialty Care
Early intervention significantly improves long-term prognosis and recovery. If you or a loved one is experiencing unusual thoughts, hearing or seeing things that others don’t, feeling disconnected from reality, experiencing changes in mood, or socially withdrawing — you are not alone. Our treatment team works with those in the early stages of significant changes in mental and behavioral health.
