Our Activities
Having worked in mental health for over a decade and substance use disorder in the past several years, our research has gotten results from IOP, group homes and family members. There is a need for case management to prepare clients for discharge at admission and follow up that can identify intervals, i.e.: planning the next steps after recovery:
- Going back to families, meeting up with them and discussing continuation of care and support at home
- Going back to school and meeting up with activity directors etc to discuss helping clients register for school and provide support i.e. transportation.
- Ensuring compliance with the Justice system making sure individuals are able to fulfill court requirements, i.e. drug testing, court attendance, educational requirements.
We will engage communities in:
- Consultation and Case management and
- Counseling
- Substance Use
- Homelessness
- Re-courses for underserved, minority populations
- Literacy: continuing education: GED and tertiary education
