Resource Assistance Program (RAP)

This program aims to empower community members by providing education on available resources and offering guidance to help them achieve their goals.

  • Social Services Support provides assistance and resources to individuals facing challenges such as poverty, homelessness, mental health issues, and domestic violence. This support aims to improve the well-being and resilience of those in need through coaching, education, and access to essential resources.

  • Family Support and Parent Education provides a comprehensive approach to assist families in nurturing positive relationships and promoting healthy child development. This service offers resources, workshops, and guidance on effective parenting strategies, communication skills, and coping mechanisms. It aims to strengthen family bonds, enhance parenting confidence, and create a supportive environment for the well-being of both parents and children.

  • Our Wellness Education and Prevention service is designed to enhance well-being without direct counseling or therapy. We provide a wealth of resources such as educational workshops, materials on health and well-being, and self-help tools. This program aims to empower individuals with knowledge and practical strategies to navigate life's challenges, fostering resilience in a supportive community environment.

Mental Health Community Partners Program

The Mental Health Community Partners Program (MHCP) supports the recovery of adults and youth aged 12+ with HIGH mental health needs in transitioning from unwell to well (for example, being discharged from a mental health facility and returning to their family and community).

MHCP uses individuals trained and certified in the program to provide this support. MHANYS believes family engagement during this time of transition to be critically important in helping adults and youth achieve and maintain long-term wellness. The MHCP program provides this support for 90 days to the adults and youth in recovery, as well as their family members and other chosen supporters

What to expect from your coach:

  • Meet with the participant and their supporters weekly throughout the 90-day program for up to 1 hour.

  • Guide participants in learning a psychoeducational curriculum focused on the cycle of recovery and whole-family support.

  • Provide ongoing support to prevent re-hospitalization and support the transition to the community.
