Clinician, Adult Services: Half time in our Adult Outpatient Clinic providing individual, group and case management services to adults. Half time providing services off site for Acute Community Support Team (ACST) is a higher level of care intended to treat, stabilize, and support clients with Severe and Persistent Mental/Emotional Illness whose symptoms tend to be barriers and interfere with access to treatment. We are based off SAMHSA's ACT services. Clients may have co-morbidity with that of Substance Use. Its overarching main goal is to support clients access to treatment, which means we may meet in the community (in-home, in-shelter), help clients attend appointments through arranging transportation, and when it makes sense to, to bring them to appointments. We work to stabilize with the hope of eventual return to outpatient care after stabilizing, as well as help them build a better quality of life through access to care.
