Our Approach
Our client-centered, coordinated care approach to behavioral health:
Optimizes wellness
Maintains a strong link with community agencies
Connects clients to trusted local resources
Facilitates timely access to primary care, specialty care, medications and supportive housing
Allows clients to live independently and choose where they’d like to receive their therapy- at home or at our day program, Vision of Hope.
VISION OF HOPE
Our community day program helps people with chronic mental illness learn ways of coping with their illness, guides them toward achieving their goals and allows them a place to have fun and be in health relationships with others.
