Mental Health Community Partners for Individuals in Recovery and Their Families

When someone in recovery transitions out of a treatment setting, family members or chosen supporters can help provide effective and meaningful support. Mental Health Community Partners are here to help.

Your Certified Mental Health Community Partner Will:

  • Meet with you weekly over 90 days
  • Guide you and your family in learning about the cycle of recovery and whole-family health
  • Provide follow-up support to prevent re-hospitalization and ER visits

  • Support successful transition to the community

Is MHCP Right for Me?
