Youth & Young Adults

For someone enrolled in the Community Support program, staff delivers services to an individual’s preferred location. Staff travels to a person’s home or other chosen locations and provides services there on individually arranged schedules that coincide with the person's needs. 

The In-Home Intervention Program for Adults (IHIP-A) is designed to provide community-based psychiatric rehabilitation services to individuals who require a higher level of support than is practical with traditional community-based programs. In this program, a team of persons works with each individual as a recognition of the greater challenges in service need. Assertive strategies are utilized to proactively engage individuals in treatment. Crisis support services are available 24 hours a day, 7 days per week. IHIP-A utilizes the recognized best practice of Illness Management and Recovery. This service model emphasizes self-management of mental illness symptoms through systematic education as well as the acquisition and implementation of appropriate coping skills. This range of services available in-home makes Pathways the most flexible service provider in the area. In all instances, the organization attempts to satisfy the consumer's desire for a living situation that will best meet the individual's needs and desires.  

The highest level of support service available from Pathways is Intensive Support and is only available in a Pathways residence. Staffing in such residences is available on site for up to 24 hours per day. It is usually indicated in cases where the individual is transitioning from long-term hospitalization or may exhibit behaviors which indicate a need for frequent staff intervention. The individual needing staff intervention to a lesser degree in a Pathways residence is offered Varied Support. While also tailored to the individual, on average, a recipient of this level of support would be provided roughly three hours of on-site service daily.
