SPOTLIGHT ON PREVENTION |
|
The Mental Health Association in Tompkins County introduces two new services, CarePath™ and Mental Health Community Partners (MHCP).
The CarePath ™ Program is designed to assist youth 12+ and adults experiencing a setback managing their behavioral health needs. A CarePath ™ Coach offers support to the person in recovery and their family members or other chosen supporters for 90 days. CarePath ™ is a relational approach to mental health recovery, emphasizing that our health and wellbeing is never in isolation of others or our community. The person in recovery selects who they want to be in the program with them be it family member or other chosen supporters. All participants engage in the same activities for defining their mind-body health and supporting family mental health. This program includes five visits, of 1 to 2 hours, throughout the 90 days. The Mental Health Community Partners (MHCP) supports youth 12+ and adults with serious mental health needs in navigating major life transitions (e.g. from treatment to community), while including and supporting the wellbeing of family and chosen supporters for 90 days. The MHCP Program adopts a relational approach to mental health recovery, emphasizing that we find wellness in partnership with others. All participants engage in the same learning activities about realistic expectations of recovery, mind-body health, and holistic health. This program includes weekly visits, of 1 to 2 hours, throughout the 90 days. If you are interested in either of these voluntary programs, please call our Family Peer Services Coordinator and Credentialed Family Peer Advocate, Vickie at (607) 273-9250 or email her at VVanCamp@mhaedu.org. |

SELF-ASSESSMENTTaking a screening test or “self-assessment” is one of the quickest and easiest ways to determine whether you are experiencing symptoms of a mental health condition.
Mental health conditions, such as depression or anxiety, are real, common and treatable. Recovery is possible. The screening tests ARE completely anonymous and confidential. |
