Address Mental Health and Daily Needs

North Homes Children and Family Services helps patients understand their needs through assessment and counseling, individual and family therapy, and substance use treatment. Adults can also access Adult Rehabilitative Mental Health Services (ARMHS), which help them manage mental health symptoms and build skills for independent living. Adult and youth Targeted Case Management (TCM) connects patients with services and resources based on their needs. They also have school-based mental health services, bringing therapists into area schools to help students address emotional, behavioral, and mental health concerns.

Connect with a Wider Network of Care

Patients and families can access additional North Homes programs as their needs change. Safe Harbor connects teens and young adults affected by sexual exploitation or human trafficking with advocacy, resources, and support. Foster care and adoption services help children and families through placement, reunification, and permanency. Teens who need a higher level of care can access North Homes’ residential programs at separate locations, where treatment includes 24-hour supervision and therapeutic support. This wider continuum gives patients and families access to different levels of care within the same organization.
