Implementing the evidence-based Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) model, the program offers services including psychiatric care, medication management, substance use treatment, nursing, psychosocial rehabilitation, housing assistance, benefits coordination, and support with daily living activities. CRF's Senior IMPACT delivers over 75% of services directly in the community, helping ensure accessibility and immediate support. Notably, all clients are provided housing within the first week of enrollment, addressing a critical need promptly.
