A Holistic, Team-Based Approach to Recovery

- Psychiatrists
- Nurses
- Clinical Social Workers
- Co-Occurring Specialists (for dual diagnosis treatment)
- Vocational Specialists

- Peer Specialists
This combined expertise allows the program to deliver essential daily services directly to the individual. These services include psychiatric symptom assessment and management, medication prescription and monitoring, supportive counseling, crisis intervention, assessment of medical needs, and vocational services like Supported Employment (SE).
