Offers care and support to emotionally disturbed children and adolescents (ages 5 - 18) who are heavy users of mental health services and at risk of needing institutional or hospital level of care. By helping the family access the services and supports they need, the program minimizes hospitalizations, emergency-room visits and residential placements, keeping the youngsters in their communities. Services are delivered on an outreach basis, primarily through home visitation, and the frequency of contact is catered to the family's needs. The intervention includes strengths-based assessment, care coordination and risk/crisis management. For more information, download our Morris L.

Provides intensive case coordination, clinical services and in-home supportive services, to emotionally disturbed children/adolescents (ages 5 to 18) and their families, where this is a risk and/or history of psychiatric hospitalization or residential placement. This program is more intensive than the Blended Case Management program, as care coordination is supplemented with five additional in-home service approaches. The goal is to help families care for the special needs of these children and enable the children to remain at home with their family. Services are delivered on an outreach basis, primarily through home visitation. For more information, download our Morris L. Black Counseling Center One-Pager (available in PDF format) |
