Referrals

Youth can be referred to this program by anyone, such as justice system-connected sources, schools, medical providers, or other human service providers. They will receive an initial assessment to determine medical necessity service recommendations, develop treatment plans, and establish referral needs.

Flexible Scheduling & Support

To meet the needs of our clients which demand flexibility in location and scheduling, we offer virtual (telehealth) services, as well as services in natural settings, such as the home, school, or community. Our MHJJ Coordinators also offer appointment times outside of traditional work hours to be flexible to the needs and availability of our clients. Finally, we can provide other types of support and assistance, such as providing or coordinating transportation for clients/families, if they need that support.
