SAMHSA GRANT FOR MENTAL HEALTH RESIDENTIAL CRISIS SERVICES SUPPORT - OUR RESIDENTIAL CRISIS SERVICES PROVIDE INTENSIVE MENTAL HEALTH AND SUPPORT SERVICES TO ADULTS EXPERIENCING, OR AT RISK OF, PSYCHIATRIC CRISES THAT JEOPARDIZE THEIR ABILITY TO FUNCTION IN THE COMMUNITY. THE PROGRAM AIMS TO PREVENT PSYCHIATRIC INPATIENT ADMISSIONS, OFFER ALTERNATIVES TO HOSPITALIZATION, SHORTEN INPATIENT STAYS, AND ALLEVIATE THE BURDEN ON GENERAL HOSPITAL EMERGENCY DEPARTMENTS. CLIENTS ARE CONNECTED WITH COMMUNITY-BASED SERVICES AND SUPPORTS THAT ENABLE THEM TO RETURN TO THEIR PREVIOUS LIVING SITUATIONS OR SECURE ALTERNATIVE HOUSING.

ADDITIONALLY, OUR RESPITE CARE PROGRAM OFFERS TEMPORARY RELIEF FOR CAREGIVERS, PROVIDING A SUPPORTIVE LIVING ENVIRONMENT FOR ADULTS WITH MENTAL ILLNESS, THEREBY GIVING CAREGIVERS A MUCH NEEDED BREAK FROM THEIR RESPONSIBILITIES. PRIOR TO THE MERGER, SAFE HARBOR UNDERWENT EXTENSIVE RENOVATIONS LEADING TO A TEMPORARY CLOSURE. COMPASS CENTER, UNDER ARCHWAY STATION�S OPERATION SINCE SEPTEMBER 2023, IS STILL IN THE EARLY STAGES OF DEVELOPMENT. BOTH FACILITIES REQUIRED ESSENTIAL SUPPLIES, UPDATED BEDDING, AND FURNITURE, AND OUR STAFF NEED SPECIALIZED TRAINING AND CERTIFICATIONS WHICH CAN BE COSTLY. TO SUPPORT THESE PROGRAM AS THEY GROW, SUBSIDIZING THE SALARIES OF SHIFT LEADERS FOR SIX MONTHS WILL BE CRITICAL. THIS SUPPORT WILL ALLOW US TO BUILD BOTH PROGRAMS TO THEIR FULL POTENTIAL ENSURING THEY OPERATE AT THE HIGHEST STANDARD MOVING FORWARD.
