Support Services for Community Stabilization

Community stabilization services provide short term intensive mental health care to individuals who are experiencing an acute psychiatric crisis. The goal is to address and stabilize mental health needs as early as possible. The point of Community Stabilization services is to help you figure out what you need to become stable, what resources (in the community AND in your natural, existing support system) are available to help you get there, and then to make a warm transfer getting you access to those resources as smoothly as possible.
