About

Mental Health Case Management provides individualized support to children with severe emotional disturbances (SED) and adults with severe and persistent mental illness (SPMI). Mental health targeted case managers use a person-centered approach to assess, plan, refer, coordinate, and assist the person in gaining access to a variety of services including mental health, medical, social, educational, housing, and vocational. We also offer culturally specific services for children or families who are Deaf, Deafblind, or Hard of Hearing by mental health targeted case managers who are fluent in American Sign Language.

Experience Navigating Complex Systems 

Navigating the support systems for your needs can feel like an uphill climb. Our experienced case managers are experts at finding the supports you need and building collaboration between them. 

Support without Judgment

A diagnosis does not define a person. Our case managers walk alongside the people they serve with an empathetic ear and deep knowledge of mental health concerns.

Building bridges to the care families need 

Everyone needs help sometimes and seeking help is a sign of strength and resiliency. People with mental illness often need a wide network of services and supports to improve functioning and overall well-being. 

Every person and family situation are unique, which is why we never use a one-size-fits-all approach. Case managers work collaboratively to develop a care plan, create pathways to access needed services, and coordinate care across multiple providers. Case managers work in partnership to build bridges to mental health care, social connections, educational opportunities, vocational training and opportunities, recreational activities, and transportation. Our compassionate case managers advocate on behalf of the people we serve’s needs and offer a helping hand and expert guidance to help people of all ages.  

Depending on a person’s unique needs, case management includes: 

  • Assessment 
  • Care planning 
  • Advocacy 
  • Housing assistance or coordination 
  • Monitoring and support 
  • Crisis evaluation and assistance 
  • Connection to community wellness and social activities 

“The case manager helps me to make the right decisions. It’s always good to have someone that seems to understand my daughter. Most people don’t understand how mental illness affects children.”

Commonly Asked Questions

All families need help sometimes and seeking help is a sign of strength and resiliency. Families with children struggling with severe mental and behavioral health issues often need a wide network of support and services to improve the child’s stability, functioning, and well-being. Our compassionate, dedicated case managers work in partnership with families to develop a care plan, ensure access to needed services, and coordinate with multiple service providers. 

Our case managers meet with the people they serve at least once per month for a minimum of one hour. In times of stress or crisis, case managers may meet with individuals and families more often, depending on the individual’s and/or family’s unique needs. Our case managers will also reach out to individuals and families by phone weekly and connect with other service providers as needed.
