Renaissance Behavioral Health offers Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) to support adults with serious mental illness in everyday life. Our multidisciplinary team provides coordinated care, including medication support, therapy, life skills training, and crisis help in the community. We work with you to build stability, independence, and long-term well-being.
Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) is an evidence-based, team-directed program that provides comprehensive treatment, rehabilitation, and support services to individuals with severe mental illness, such as schizophrenia. The goal of ACT is to empower these individuals to live independently and thrive within their chosen communities, rather than relying on repeated hospitalizations.
The ACT model is designed to meet the complex and varied needs of its participants through a holistic, coordinated approach. A dedicated multidisciplinary team, which may include psychiatrists, nurses, social workers, and other mental health professionals, works closely with each client to develop and implement a personalized plan of care.
Key services provided through the ACT program may include:
Assertive community treatment (ACT) is a form of community-based mental health care for individuals experiencing serious mental illness that interferes with their ability to live in the community, attend appointments with professionals in clinics and hospitals, and manage mental health symptoms.
Individuals must be adults (18+) with a primary diagnosis of schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, major depressive disorder with psychotic features or other psychotic disorders or bipolar disorder.
Our program also includes home visits, teacher consultations, and individual and family counseling. When a therapist identifies a need that goes beyond the scope of the school environment, the child may be referred to receive other Renaissance programs or community services, in addition to their School-Based therapy.
