IMPACT Program

(Integrated Multi-agency Program in Assertive Community Treatment)
To reduce the need for hospitalization, the IMPACT program supports people with a severe or chronic mental illness by teaching them ways to improve quality of life, self and home care, and resource utilization. An interdisciplinary provides consistent, supportive care and assertive client advocacy.

Services include:

  • Assistance with symptom monitoring, medication compliance, nutrition, sleep, exercise, money management, shopping, cooking, home maintenance, transportation, and securing or maintaining employment
  • Opportunities to participate in recreational activities that emphasize socialization, coping skills, health and wellness
  • Crisis management
